Relationship3rd great-granduncle of Lorna Henderson.
     James Rowe was baptized on 5 Apr 1777 at Buckland Monachorum, DEV, ENG.2 Some sources show James as born on 2 Aug 1778 but this was on trees received before the extracts from the Buckland baptisms, which show a baptism on 5th Apr the previous year. I have now discounted this date.3,1,4
     James Rowe died on 2 Mar 1867 in Exeter, DEV, ENG; aged 89 (not, as some had previously thought, the Dec qtr 1852 dth reg. in Exeter as James was enumerated in the 1861 census and is buried in a Trimble family tomb with a date of 1867).3,5
     James Rowe appeared on the census of 7 Jun 1841 at Mont le Grand, Heavitree, DEV, ENG, in the household of John Trimble and Hannah Trimble.6 James Rowe appeared on the census of 30 Mar 1851 at 9 Regents Park, St Thomas, Heavitree, DEV, ENG, in the household of Hannah Trimble as brother of Hannah.7,8
     James appeared on the census of 7 Apr 1861 at 3 &4 Queen St, All Hallows Goldsmith St, Exeter, DEV, ENG, as a boarder with Henry Davey and Sarah Davey enumerated as DAVEY: Henry 31 linen draper, b Ashwater, DEV; wife Sarah 35 b Bickleigh, DEV; Children (next page) John T 5; Henry C 2; Frederic W (sic) 1 (all b Exeter); Sister: Harriett Davey unm, 33 draper's assistant b Ashwater; Boarder: James Rowe unm, 83 (indexed as 23 but, with knowledge, can be read as 83, James is actually Sarah's uncle), gentleman b North Buckland, DEV; and 3 assistants and 2 servants (one was a Harriett Tozer 14 nurse serv. b Whitestone, DEV).9
     James Rowe was interred with John Trimble and Hannah Trimble in St Bartholomew's Cem., Exeter, DEV, ENG.10
