Looking for descendants of Rowley families from Shapwick and Meare in Somerset UK. My gr gr gr grandfather John Rowley migrated to South Australia 1839 with his wife Charlotte Smith. John worked at the Manor House in Shapwick and was given a bible by the owner on his departure.

I wonder if this John Rowley is related to my (possible)GGF, Robert Rowley born 1844 in Shapwick to George and Jane Rowley. He was the youngest of nine and the family comes from a long line of masons. Robert came to Melbourne Australia in 1885. There is no known death record of Robert in Australia or NZ.

John Rowley and Charlotte Smith were my Great Great Great Grandparents. Their son John Rowley married Sarah Polden. Their daughter was Lucy Rowley.
