Find Living Relatives

My mother and father weren't married. I know his name is John (Jack) Rowe. His mother was named Mariah Cahill before she married. He had several brothers and sisters and in his younger days lived in Ince, near Wigan, Lancashire. Last known whereabouts was either Salford or St. Helens where he worked in a pub. As he was born about 1912/19 chances are he could very well no longer be alive but I have never seen him and would love just to have a picture so maybe there are other children out there.

Did you not have another thread about this?

Anyway not seeing a birth for John/Jack with mmn Cahill

Sure it's not this one? though I can't find a marriage to Charll
to tie in

Births Mar 1919 (>99%)
Rowe John Charll Wigan 8c 49

Possible?

Marriages Jun 1907 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAHILL Maria Wigan 8c 164
SHERIDAN Patrick Wigan 8c 164

then
poss 2nd marriage for Maria ( not Mariah)

Marriages Mar 1916 (>99%)

Rowe Thomas Sheridan Wigan 8c 173
Sheridan Maria Rowe Wigan 8c 173

ok think that John birth might be it, and a mistranscription of mmn...there are births following the marriage

I will send those via PM as there is a chance the youngest is likely to be living....

Sorry to say........

Rowe John Williams Burnley 8e 232

What year was he in St. Helens or Salford?

Rose

Looks like the Sheridan marriage produced 4 children, Charles 1907, Joseph Patrick 1910, Bridget 1912, Margaret 1914. Then 5 Rowe siblings, Jane 1920, Terance 1923, Rose Ann 1925, Mary 1927 & Brian 1929. I think there was also Doris in 1917, but mmn has been recorded as Sheridan.

These are all from Lancashirebmd, born in Wigan. Try searching trees to see if you can find someone with any of these is their tree and contact them.

Of course, Rose, you are correct..........it was late! That's my excuse.

Not convinced the John Rowe 1919 is the right one either - although I can't find the death registration a thread yesterday led to the Wigan cemetery burials and there is a burial for John Rowe, age 4+half on 3/12/1923, place of death Scholes.
