Surnames: Ewart
Hi, I have posted replies to a couple of people and just came upon yours. I also have the same problem of not being sure where ancestors were born Ireland or Scotland, I have always been told Ireland, but, upon reading your message there seems to be some kind of a connection. My grandfather was James Alexander Ewart and he has or had a cousin(?) named John (married to Mary) they were from Scotland and I have been told that my great great grandfather was a ship's captain. My great grandfather was Dave Ewart who married Marion Eagleson.

Surnames: Cobourg Ewarts & Eaglesons
Hi ewartd.....this is a confusing board, I'm not sure who's answering who! Anyway, I'm back doing Cobourg Ewarts for my BC nephews.

My Mom, nee: Mary George Campbell (1904-1976) married Murray Edgerton Ewart in 1921. They had 3 kids: Edgerton (aka Edgar)(1921-1976); Sheila Mary (1926-2006); Marion Eagleson (1929-1999). I'm the only child by Mom's 2nd marriage, so they were my 1/2 sisters & brother.

Murray was the 3rd son of Marion Eagleson (1869-1964) & David S. Ewart (1866-1951). Marion & David were both born in Cold Springs (north of Cobourg) and both died in Cobourg at their Albert Str home.

They had 4 sons: James Alexander 1 Oct 1897; Donald David 25 Feb 1900; Murray Edgerton 9 Jan 1899; John Beatty(aka Jack) 3 Apr 1904 ~ all of whom were born in Cobourg. They are all dead.

"Grampa",David S. Ewart, was the 9th of 11 children. His father was John Ewart, born 1823 in Ireland - died 1893 in Cold Springs. His mother was Mary Pink, born 1829 in Ireland. The only other knowledge I've discovered about Ireland is that John 1823 had a brother James also a Mariner in the shipping business.

If you want the family tree I have, email me ~ wellbelove@sympatico.ca
