This family lived at Scar in 1851 and 1861 and at Reedlums in 1871. Ann b. 1863 married John Mainland.   His first marriage.

 

 A great grand-daughter of Christina (Louttit) Bowie wrote:

Christina (1863- 1936) married Charles Bowie in Edinburgh. They emigrated to Canada and settled in Winnipeg. They had three children and two grandsons one of whom was my father.  They had a tailoring business.

The youngest of the Louttit family was Elizabeth who married Edward Bowie the younger brother of Charles Bowie. He was a train engineer. They settled in Fort William, now Thunder Bay, in Ontario. They had 4 children and three grandchildren, two of whom still live at Thunder Bay.

The sisters, and their daughters, were great letter writers and kept in close touch, but all traces of John, William, Scarth, and Henry have been lost. None of them is thought to have remained in Rousay.

Elizabeth Cormack, a grand-daughter of Christina (Louttit) Bowie, writes:

Catherine married and lived in Greenock, Scotland. She had a married daur. by the name of Jean Parker. James went to Australia. He erected a headstone on his parents’ grave. William married Charlesina Hamilton in Glasgow in 1878. Alexander is said to have been a partner in a small diamond mine in South Africa, where he died. Jane Mary (Mary Jane) married a ship’s captain and went to the South Pacific. She settlrd in Hawaii and had 3 daughters and one son. She was widowed and remarried in Hawaii. Her 3 daughters married and eventually moved to California, but her only son, Calle Dixon, remained in Hawaii.
