ROWE of Carew & Caldey Island, Pembrokeshire
« on: Monday 24 November 14 19:53 GMT (UK) »
Seeking information about the origins of Sarah ROW(E) who married Henry JAMES at Penally on 8 Jun 1833.

According to the 1851, 1861 & 1871 censuses she was born at Carew, Pembs.

In 1841 & 1851 Sarah JAMES was with her husband on Caldey Island [which is formally part of the mainland parish of Penally]. She was aged 30-34 in 1841 and 38 in 1851.

According to familysearch they were in Carew in 1861 (when she was aged 55) and 1871 (aged 63).

There were two known children, Anne baptised at Penally quite promptly after her marriage, and Joseph, born c.1836-7 at Carew.

Also on Caldey Island in 1851 were the families of George ROWE senior (aged 60, born Carew) and George ROWE junior (aged 29, born Carew), both quarrymen. There were quarries on Caldey Island and also very extensive quarries in West Williamston, which I think is in Carew parish. Can anyone link her to them?
