my tree goes back to donald gow born 1692 married to cristen McAree born 1696. My granfather did a tree which is very involved and branches out a lot. Tell me more of you. I have attached our family crest. There are a few william james on our tree. Regards Murray

/Does your grandfather's tree include a Peter and a William Gow who belonged to the 82nd Regiment from Scotland who arrived in Nova Scotia (New Brunswick) in about 1783 where they obtained land grants . Both were Privates and each received 100 acres. William Henry Gow was the first of my family....born 1795 btb Halifax, Nova Scotia. Have no proof of where Peter and William were from in Scotland. We surmise they were born about 1760.
Thank you
