Hi
I have five births below from Thomas McEwan and Bridget Semple (or Name Variants)
I suspect they are linked to Thomas McEwan and Bridget Semple (in my tree which I harvested from a Death Certificate - Charles McEwan 1857 dod) but can't find any digital records past the baptism details. It has been suggested that they may have gone overseas (I can't find any death records)
I wanted someone with international access to check names in the Americas and Australia to see if there were any hits (they may have some parent names in DC's) =========== Scotland Roman Catholic Parish Baptisms Transcription (Find My Past) says

Have you tried looking yourself on the familysearch site?

Possible death of Robert? [ NO - see ErikaH's post below.)
No age shown, so you'd have to see the image on Scotlands People (6 credits).
MCEWEN ROBERT M Death date: 30/6/1821 Edinburgh, St Mary's Cathedral

The one posted by the OP was baptised in July
|
That's a Church of Scotland burial, whereas the baptisms are all RC.
May or may not matter, but casts doubt.
EDIT: This was in response to a burial in 1833 at the High Church , Glasgow for an Arthur McEwen born c1807, posted by ErikaH and now deleted, per her post below..
I'm mentioning it for elimination purposes.

This will be the death record Christopher mentioned:
MCEWAN CHARLES 58 mmn SEMPLE 1857 564/1 141 Greenock New or Middle
He was a bell-hanger and gas-fitter, married. Address: 41 Market Street, Greenock. His father was a farmer. Cause of death: " Morbus cordis for years"
Informant: Thomas Nimmo, brother-in-law (not present).
So this looks like him in 1851:
Charles Mcewan in the 1851 Scotland Census Name: Charles Mcewan Age: 50 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1801 Relationship: Head Spouse: Mary Mcewan Gender: Male Where born: Ireland <<<<<<<<<<<<<< Parish Number: 564 Civil Parish: Greenock West County: Renfrewshire Address: 12 High Vennel Lambs Land Occupation: Gas Fitter Journeyman ED: 83 Page: 9 Household Schedule Number: 28 Line: 7 Roll: CSSCT1851_119 Household Members: Name Age Charles Mcewan 50 Mary Mcewan 48 Maryann Mcewan 20 Charles Mcewan 19 Theresa Mcewan 7 Joseph Mcewan 4 Charlotte Hardey 32 Catherine Oneil 20
Widow and children in 1861:
Mary Mcewen in the 1861 Scotland Census Name: Mary Mcewen Age: 60 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1801 Relationship: Head Gender: Female Where born: Ireland <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Registration Number: 564/1 Registration district: Greenock Middle Civil parish: Greenock Middle County: Renfrewshire Address: 7 Market Street Occupation: Draper ED: 15 Household schedule number: 48 Line: 21 Roll: CSSCT1861_76 Household Members Age Relationship Mary Mcewen 60 Head Mary A Mcewen 30 Daughter Charles Mcewen 26 Son Teanesa Mcewen 17 Daughter Joseph Mcewen 14 Son
As Charles was born in Ireland, chances are that his parents married there.
No record on irishgenealogy.ie, of either Charles's birth or his parents marriage.
