Can my grandfather, W.H. Rowley of Ionia County, Michigan, be traced back to Henry Rowley who reportedly landed between 1628 to 1630 in Plymouth, MA? His son was Moses Rowley and I cannot trace W.H. directly back to Henry.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks.

I am looking for information on Richard ROWLEY. I have him placed in Nebraska sometime between 1917 and 1920. He married Alza Marjorie WAIDLEY in Nov. of 1917. Together, they had four children. 1) Donald Irven ROWLEY 2)Nova ROWLEY 3) Lyle ROWLEY and 4) Arlowe ROWLEY

Richard and Alza divorced and they both remarried. I don’t have the dates on any of this. Donald was my grandfather.

A transcription of the marriage record appears in Perry Percy’s Civil War Pension file as part of Sarah’s application for widow’s benefits. Certificate # 673349.

Other than that she was born in NY between 1822-1823, and had two girls, only one of which survived childhood, I don’t know more about her. This daughter, Mary E., married Frank D. GROOM in Clinton Co, Michigan and had 3 childrenIt is the Percy family I’m interested in, not the Rowleys.

For what I have on this couple, their descendants and his ancestors, go to www.rootsweb.com, choose family trees in the header, and enter ” the farm ” in the box for database.

I’m interested in finding out more on Patrick Rowley (maybe surname was O’Rothlan??) born somewhere in Ireland c 1821. Had a son Michael and Anthony and all the family fled (Co.Sligo?) Ireland and settled in Bradford, Yorkshire, then Leeds, Yorkshire c 1860. I have since found leads on Michael but both Patrick & Anthony still remain lost. I would like to know of any other Rowleys in and around Co. Sligo/Roscommon area. Also Patrick had a daughter who left bound for the USA and became a nun. I have no christian name so I think that’s never going amount to anything!
