I went to the mormons in portsmouth today as they said they could help me trace william mcdowell b 1792 stoke damerel devon Parents

Also i asked about cemeteries she said they could all be buried weston mill plymouth

as these films cost over £7 just to look at i wondered if any genes members had one


Thank You

Joyce

could he have been born Cornwall?

William McDowell.

23rd March 1794

Falmouth Cornwall.

Parents John and Margaret.

(note this is a bapt date and not DOB.)

extracted record from the Parish Registers. contained on IGI- www.familysearch.org.

Are you sure he was born in Stoke Dameral? familysearch (the Mormon's website) has baptisms for that period and there are no McDowell records. The film you refer to would be the one that these baptisms were transcribed from.
