Subject: re: Thomas Rowbotham

Am researching maternal side of family that goes back to Thomas Rowbotham who married Mary Ann Welsh and had a daughter Jane Hannah who married George Bowman Wilson. With theirfamily they travelled to Australia where George died in Melbourne 1917 and Jane died Melbourne 1916.
I'm wanting to go back further and trace Thomas and Mary Ann's roots. Can anyone out their shed any light for me?

Better late than never Nora. I think we have a match! My Great, great Grandfather (paternal) was Thomas Rowbotham (b. 1833 Ashfield Sutton, Nottinghamshire) His wife was Mary Ann. (I have always assumedWelsh but can find no marriage confirmation) Their children were Mary Ann (Galley); Robert Welsh Rowbotham (my great grandad) and Elizabeth (Nichol) Going by the birthdates I am sure there were more children but I haven't found them. Robert Welsh Rowbotham married Isabella Galley and had six children: Priscilla 1878, John 1880, Edith 1883, Thomas 1885 (grandad), Elizabeth 1887 and Jane Hannah 1889 (the year her mother died). They lived near Durham. My grandad and his family moved to Canada, his brother moved to Australia. Close enough? Please write.
