Berkshire / ROWELL / SMITH Newbury/Speen
« on: Sunday 26 September 10 19:13 BST (UK) »
Hi, still on the trail of Newbury brewers I have come across a bunch of links to the SMITHs of Speen/Speenhamland.
In 1816 Sarah SMITH of Newbury d of Thomas SMITH married Robert ROWELL in London (St Mary le Bone)
Sarah was buried (aged 22) in Newbury in May 1818 after giving birth to Thomas Robert a month earlier.
Robert ROWELL remarried in Jan 1819 - to Elizabeth SMITH (London, St Dunstan's in the West).
Robert ROWELL became a partner (before 1818) in what would later become the Newbury Brewery Co - possibly through his SMITH connections.
Another partner John SATCHELL married Mary SMITH in 1824.
And William SMITH married Harriet TOWNSEND (co-heiress to the brewery) in 1898
Is anyone researching SMITHs in this area? Could all these SMITHs (Elizabeth, Mary, Sarah, & William) be siblings?
