McCown Lineages
Location: [unknown]
Surname/tag: McCown
These are ancestry information found on Ancestry.com in a tree shared between me and a friend who helped me get started with Ancestry.com. I don't know if she added these names or I did, but it was done w/o documentation, so I won't add them to WikiTree proper until I have documentary evidence. This is a working list.
