Surnames:
My Govan family were from Tarbolton and Colyton areas of Ayr 1800. The orginal name was Govan but sometime during the 1830's the name changed to Gavin. Whether Govan was Gavin before that at present I do not know.
Alexander Gavin of Dalmellington Ironworks was the son of James Govan and Margaret Tinnock
Other names accociated were Howat, Tinnock ( Tannock or Tennoch,) Ramsey and McVicar
