Person who initially created this profile has shown Eupham Cowan's date of birth / christening as 24 August 1729 at Glasgow High Church, Lanark.
I am unable to find any trace of this birth in National Records of Scotland / Scotland's People and quite frankly find it unlikely that this is the correct birth record when the family resides in Haddingtonshire (now East Lothian).
I have established from 'Scotland's People' site that only 3 people named Eupham Cowan were born in Haddingtonshire between 1720 & 1820. (The names Eupham & Eupheme were often interchangeable....no record of any births for a Eupheme!) One of these births occurred in 1791 so too late to be 'our' Eupham/Eupheme.
Option 1) Eupham Cowan born 18 Nov 1722 at Saltoun - Parents Patrick Cowan & Clara Litster
Option 2) Eupham Cowan born 10 Mar 1728 at Pencaitland - Parents William Cowan & Hellen Ree (perhaps Reed?)
As both of these births were in the correct vicinity it seems very likely that one of them will be the correct match for this profile,
Further investigations ongoing to confirm which birth relates. (db)
