There are other threads about the Rowney family. A contributor to one said that the family moved from Belfast to Scotland. Click on "Profile" to find your old threads.
Did you intend to post on the Lanarkshire board?
Btw, you seem to have hit CapsLock. A post which is all in capital letters is regarded as shouting. See "Help" section "How to use RootsChat".

I think you need to rearrange the wording of the subject as it's misleading & confusing?!...

Edited with strike through...please see Add at bottom of this post.

"samuel rowney b1899 belfast died in hotel in scotland??

It infers Samuel died in a hotel in Scotland...

"Samuel Rowney, aged 63, night watchman, whose body was found in a lift shaft at Asia House, Manchester"

Annie

Add, It looks as though you're researching 2 different people with same names.

Can you please tell us whether you have found a link to either/both with accuracy? as your other post stated "apparantly he was my granddads brother"

The Samuel Rowney who was murdered on 28 February 1961 was the son of Samuel Rowney (1870-1934) and Catherine Daly (1871-1954). His father had been a colour sergeant in the British army before WW1 and the family had spent a lot of time out in India. In fact two of his children died young out there. Samuel never married but he had two brothers: William Thomas Rowney (1899-1963) and and a Charles Harold Rowney (1913-1980). They both reached adulthood and have left descendants in the Manchester area where Samuel and Catherine moved after army life.
