BOWMAN in County Down, 1770 >> to U.S.A.

[chasdobie]

Samuel Bowman, son of Robert Bowman, was born in 1763 in County Down, Ireland. He immigrated with his parents and sibling(s) to the USA about 1770. The family landed in New York City, and went directly to Albany where they lived for many years. I am finding some information about this family in the U.S.A. but don't have a clue how to find traces of them in Ireland.

Thanks, Chas. Dobie.
