From: Nelda Florence <nellnjf@arn.net> ?Subject: [HOWIE] Re: HOWIE-D Digest V01 #34 ?Date: Tue, 24 Jul 2001
In response to Max M.Howie, I have done research on the Howie, Howey family, as I am a descendent also. I have found in the "Heritage of Union County North Carolina Book (Centennial) 1842-1992", a mention of Robert Howie. It states that John Howey settled in Mecklenberg in 1770, and thru his son George, his son in law William Howie, and Robert Howie, the Howeys & Howies of Union County came to be.
It also states that William Howie 1759-1819 born in Scotland married Elizabeth Howey 1766-1819 of Mecklenberg County, NC. Their children were Ann Howie 1791-?, Margaret Howie 1793-?, John Howie 1796-1856, Robert Howie 1798-1845, William Stewart Howie 1803-1839, Elizabeth Milligan Howie 1806-1881, Mary E. Howie 1810-1875. There is also a family tree chart by the Carolina Genealogical Society, Monroe, NC, showing a Mary Howey 3-1-1762 married Robert Howie (or John Cry). While these dates may not be exact as to what you are seeking, they may be a generation off. This family used same names each generation it seems, and the
Howie & Howey names seem to be intermingled through out generations.There is much more in this book about Winchesters, Wolfes, Penagers,(various spellings), Stephensons, Orr's Osborne's, McCorkles, Bicketts (various spellings) as well as Howie's & Howeys. These are the family names in my history. Hope this helps you, Nell,

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Robert by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Robert:
