Sarah Elizabeth Fact 5: Sep 05, 1852, Died during cholera epidemic, Ft Wayne, IN Fact 6: Member of Presbyterian Church Notes for SARAH IRWIN: Taken from family book compiled by Mrs. Evea Cook Sanders and Mrs. Wanda Lee Lorton Walton - printed in 1959 In Scotland, the first homes of the Irvines (Irwins) were in that part of Ayrshire called Cunningham, where they gave their name to the river Irvine. Irvine is one of the 66 Royal Burghs in Scotland and has been such, since the days of Bruce. When the Irvines shifted to Dumfrieshire, they were for several generations, hereditary mayors of the town of Dumfrie. This was long before the reign of King Robert of Bruce. Crine Erwine (or Irwin) was abthane of Dull and Seneschal and Collector of all the King's rent in the Western Isles. He married Beatrix, eldest daughter of Malcom II, and was the father of Duncan I, King of Scotland. Duncan, slain by Macbeth, was actually an Irvine, as was his son Malcom III, who in turn overthrew Macbeth and restored the Irvines to the throne of Scotland. His descendants to Alexander III, predecessor of Robert Bruce were therefore Irvines. The period of these Kings is from 1034 to 1285. All the subsequent Kings of Scotland and England after the union of Scotland and England are therefore descendants of Crine Irvine, father of Duncan I. In Scotland the Irwin Clan runs far back into antiquity. The name is found in various forms: Irwin, Irvine, Irving and Erwin being the most frequent. The most complete published account of this ancient Clan of Borderers is found in a richly illustrated volume, now out of print. "The Irvings, Irwins, Irvines, Erinveines, or any other spelling of the name: An Old Scots Border Clan" (Aberdeen, Rosemont Press, 1907) was written by its then Chieftain, Colonel John Beaufin Irving of Bonshaw, Dumfrieshire, Scotland. A feature of this book is a series of colored plates illustrating the minor variations of the Coat of Arms in different families of the Clan. But in all appear the three Holly leaves, green upon a field of silver, two and one, familiar to all true Irwins. --"The Descendants of Wm.
