A search of Source:Kegley and Kegley indicates a number of Cowan's marriage records in the early 19th century Wythe County area. These records imply that Cowan's were present in the area before the turn of the century, but little information is available about them. At least two participants in the Cowan YDNA project trace their descent from a Samuel Cowan in Wythe County. Presumably this Samuel Cowan is connected in some way to the records cited in Source:Kegley and Kegley. The YDNA results for these descendants shows that their ancestors were in the "G" haplogroup. No other "G" haplogroup descendants have as yet been identified.
