We found this memorial in Dunblane Cathedral Cemetery and thought it might be appropriate here.
The inscription reads..

In memory of
William McCowan
Massachusetts Infantry
who died
in Camp Readville
US America
In defence of the Union
against the Rebellion
1st April 1864
aged 47 years.

There is another inscription which reads
erected by Daniel McCowan of Fall River, US America on his visit to Dunblane Nov.22nd 18781. Returned to America Dec.30 1871



On the other side of the Memorial the inscription appears to be the parents of William and Daniel.
