the death I posted is for the james born 1857 st.germans just to let susan know as she did say james 1857 she had the wrong james

the one born in 1863 could have been born to the same parents and they named him after the one that died in 1857

I posted the birth registration in my post on 10 Sep 2016 21:30

and his death in 1943.


There are a lot of Rowes in St German, and they all use the same name

Thank you,
Alice was my granddads mother she died when he was about 10/11 he never spoke about it as he blamed his father for her death, so very little is known about his family

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 10 Sep 2016 22:04

Thye were married in June quarter 1887, and Alice was born in the September quarter 1887 ................


servants were not allowed to be married back then (even though many cooks were called by the honorific "Mrs")

It looks as though they did not want to lose their jobs, so Marian managed to conceal the marriage AND the child.

It might be truer to say that James Richard moved to London to work ........ see the 1891 Census

That he met Marian there, married her there, but that Marian went to St Germans to have their eldest child .... perhaps to hide the birth from their employers?????
