_McDowall Family._--More than a century ago there was a family (since
extinct) of the name of McDowall, in the county Cavan, Ireland, belonging
to some branch of the ancient and noble Scottish family of that name, who
had migrated to these shores. Perhaps some of your readers could inform me
as to what branch they belonged, and when they settled in Ireland, as also
if there be any pedigree of them extant, as I am very anxious to learn
something of them at all events?
