• Notes

  A fishmonger, according to the 1851 Census for Berwick. This information on Peter Cowe and his wife and family (and also for Peter's forebears) has not been verified. It has been taken from the IGI Family Search online, and from Parish Vital Records. Also, the 1851 Census for Berwick [Enumeration District 2 I, Folio 533] has the place of birth for most of the children as Tweedmouth, except for Robert, the youngest. The baptisms were at 'Chapel St or Shaws Lane or Relief Chapel, United Presbyterian, Berwick' - does this mean they were all taken from one record. or one minister. The Census gives the place of birth for both Peter and Catharine as 'Scotland'.
