The Cowans from County Down
The Cowan family originated in Scotland but moved with a large number of Scots to Ulster where they stayed several generations. There were four Cowan brothers who were born in Ulster in the late 1600s and early 1700s. These four brothers emigrated from Newry Port in about 1720. They arrived with other Scots-Irish in Pennsylvania and settled in Chester County. Descendants of Hugh, David, John and William Cowan live in Pennsylvania and other parts of the United States.
