My family of Pow's originate from East Lothian , mainly Tranant , Haddington and Gladsmuir and mostly in agriculture.Roughly in the 1850's John Pow and his wife Margaret Crawford moved to West Lothian to the Bathgate , Armadale area . Most of the subsequently family were miners. I would like to hear from anybody researching this family especially the West Lothian side .

Hi Diane

I have come across John Horn and Ann Pow during my research, Ann is a very distant relation, We share a common ancestry 4 generations back from Ann Pow to Georg Pow and Janet Stevenson who married 1 jun 1675 in Tranent .

Hi Rob,
I know it's a few years ago that you were looking at the Pow's from Tranent, but if you're still around I wouldn't mind seeing what you've come up with. I am also from George Pow and Janet Stevenson, but going instead though their daughter Ann their son George Pow born 1676, all the way through to my Great Grandad William Pow b 1879 in Haddington, East Lothian before he moved to Calgary Canada. His son (my grandad) also William is still alive (90 this year) and really wants to know what happened to all his cousins etc that stayed in Scotland.
