- Protestant Scot-immigrated to ireland to escape religious persecution

EWING ORIGINS
The Ewings are of Scottish descent, originally from the West of Scotland,
near Glasgow. They were located on the River Forth, near Stirling Castle,
in the vicinity of Loch Lomond. Their religion was Presbyterian. The
reproduction of the coat of arms, above, was recognized by the Hon.
Thomas Ewing family as coming from Scottish ancestors. Near the lower
middle of the drawing is "Mask Ewing," short for Maskell Ewing.

During the mid-1600's, there was great religious persecution of the
Protestants in Scotland. According to the tradition of the Ewing clan,
the Ewings of America trace their origin to six stalwart brothers of a
Highland clan, who, with their chieftain, engaged in insurrection in
1685, in which they were defeated, their chieftain captured and executed
and themselves outlawed. It is told that our Ewing ancestors first went
from their seat on the River Forth to the Isle of Bute, in Scotland, and
then settled at or near Coleraine, County Londonderry, of Ulster, in
Northern Ireland. On July 12, 1690, members of the Ewing Clan took part
in the Battle of the Boyne, fought on the river of that name in Eastern
Ireland. In this battle, King James II was opposed by William of Orange
who was fighting for the Irish Protestants. The result of this battle was
the complete overthrow of James, thus forcing his abdication of the
throne and establishing the rule of William and Mary. The anniversary of
this battle is still celebrated by the Orangemen, or Irish Protestants.

Who were these six stalwart Ewing brothers? Much research still needs to
be done but at this point in time, the brothers might have included: John
Ewing of Carnshanagh; Robert Ewing, father of Alexander; Findley (Finley)
Ewing, father of Thomas; James Ewing of Inch Island; William Ewing,
father of Nathaniel; and possibly an Alexander Ewing.Contact: Susan
