In 1861 there is a John Cowley
age 32 Ballabeg
In 1871 he is at knock moar
In 1881 he is at Cronk Moar
There is a reference in thomas cowley snr
leaving cronk moar to his son william in the will i have william is johns brother
my problem is that the lady on genes reunited claims that the john at cronk moar is hers with the father? as mathias cowley
coincidentally there is a a mention of mat cowley in thomas will
please if none of this makes sense ask me to explain
