Biography
Unable to find any additional information on his death. An estimate would be about 1905 because of a letter from a nephew in Scotland to my 2x great aunt ( Does this relate to Robert born 1775 or Henry born about 1830? if Henry then it should be on his page. Alan Drummie)
(NOTE for a birth in 1775 a death in 1905 would make Robert 130 years old which seems unlikely. Very few deaths were recorded in Scotland before 1855. As Thomas and Agnes had a second son born 1782 named Robert it is most likely that Robert 1775 had died sometime between 1778 the birth of Peter and 1782 the birth of Robert the second, I think there has to be a generation between 1782 Robert and the father of 1830 Henry. If indeed this is the family of Henry McGowan Wikitree id:- McGowan-2886 the links you have made are very tenuous. Alan Drummie)
