Mary, you should know that there is no proof that Ellen Cowgill's
maiden name was Stackhouse. This relationship has been a matter of
controversy for about 100 years.

In 1682, two brothers, Thomas Stackhouse, Jr. and John Stackhouse, came to
Pennsylvania with William Penn in the great Quaker migration. They came from
Settle Monthly Meeting in Yorkshire and settled in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
As far as can be determined, everyone named Stackhouse in the USA and Canada is
descended from one of these brothers.
I am attempting to document as many of the descendants of Thomas and John as
possible.
I have a database of over 4,800 people, descendants of Thomas and John plus
spouses and I have written "STACKHOUSE: An Original Pennsylvania Family",
Gateway Press, Baltimore, MD, 1988.
If you are interested in your family history, please send me as much information
that you know about your grandparents and/or great-grand parents, or even
further back (names, dates, places, etc.).
If I find a link to Thomas and/or John, I will send it to you. If not, I will
file the information for future research.
THIS WILL NOT COST YOU ANYTHING!! I AM NOT SOLICITING MONEY!! I am merely
requesting an exchange of information.
