ROBERT BURROWS HOWE Hi everyone, I'm trying to find anything about the ancestry of my paternal gggrandfather (1835 - 1890) . He married Jane Hamilton (1836 - 1924). Dates approximate and I don't know where either of them were born, but they moved to Glasgow before October 1861, as that is where their daughter, ISABELLA BURROWS HOWE (1861-1938) was born. They then moved to Edinburgh where another child was born and then finally down to Tottenham where their family grew even larger. He was a shoe shop manager there, and the family lived above the shop. Isabella married Robert Young(1860 - 1931) of Birmingham in Tottenham,May 1882, and died in Altrincham. I'd be really grateful if anyone can help. Many thanks Patsy
