Rowlands family bible in Wisconsin
« on: Saturday 10 July 10 19:41 BST (UK) »
I have just gotten into my possession an old Welsh family bible that lists Thomas Rowlands, his wife, and all the other children and their birthdates.

I would love to know what to do with this bible because it has no connection to my family (other than being Welsh). Please e-mail me at (*). I am in Cedarburg, Wisconsin USA.

We were able to take pictures of the inside cover of the bible to at least give you an idea of the information inside. There doesn't appear to be any other information written in the bible.

I also have a memo from 1981 that was found inside the bible. It gives information about Rev. Daniel T. Rowlands, Mary Ann Williams Owens Rowlands and their family. Also there is a photocopy of Rev. Daniel T. Rowlands obituary from the Slate Democrat newspaper of Aberdeen, South Dakota from Friday, July 23, 1897.

I see that all my scans are too large to attach here, so if you e-mail me, I will be happy to send them to you.

Hello, I realize that this is a very old post but I believe that I may be able to help locating this family. Owen Rowlands whom I believe is one of Daniel and Mary Ann's sons, and 3 of his children reside in Illinois. I am the wife of his oldest grandson Chad Owen Rowlands.

If by chance you still have this bible available I would love to recover it for my family.

Very Best Regards,
Tara Rowlands

Hi Tara - I have found a home for the Bible with some other of the Rowlands family members. If you email me separately I will get your contact information to them so that you can find each other. My email is rbatty at (using the "at" symbol) wi.rr.com.
