Eliza Milford/William Ewing/Stirlingshire/Scotland
Posted by: Sherri Graf (ID *****6630) Date: July 18, 2008 at 09:06:21

This information comes from the Journal of CLAN EWING:

"One set of information received, showed that a William Ewing born about 1665-70 was married about 1687 to 91 in Bonhill, Scotland to Eliza Milford. This does not appear to be correct because at this time in Scotland the name Milford did not exist. And from further research the name Milford appears to be an Irish name. There is a Milford, Ireland which is not far from Inch Island and the other areas where the Ewings lived. That information further states that a son William was born in Stirlingshire, Scotland and he is the father of William Ewing of Rockingham. With this later William being born in 1710."

My ancestor is William Ewing of Rockingham, but I have his birthdate as 1694. There is much confusion concerning William and Eliza Milford. Was Eliza William of Rockingham's first wife or his mother? Have you learned anything more of these early Ewings/Milfords?
