Trow Family from Kerry (Ceri), Churchstoke & Chirbury areas

[Pete401]

One of my Great Grandmother's was Jane Trow born in 1843 in Kerry, my research has revealed several branches of the Trow family all in the same areas of Montgomeryshire/Shropshire. Has anyone else been down this research route that can help?

Welcome to Rootschat

Have you checked the Surname Interests Board to see if anybody else is researching them?

Scroll to bottom of this page and the link is under Tools

Was Trow her birth surname or her married name?  Who were her parents?

[Pete401]

Thank you, Jane Trow was her maiden name and her parents were James Trow (1805) & Margaret Trow (1808).

If she is the person who married Peter Otten, there are numerous trees on Ancestry.co.uk.

Some have Jane's birth and marriage certificates. Also, a photograph of her mother, Margaret Tudor, although the birth certificate has her mother as Margaret Trow.

According to one tree, this is the will of her great-great grandfather - http://www.rootschat.com/links/01poy/

If anyone has access to FindMyPast can they look up a James Trow bapt 29 Sep 1805 Kerry please?

[DCB]

The GRO has the children as mmn Trow, so the Tudor name for Margaret is incorrect.

James Trow married Margaret Trow in on 3rd September 1829 in Berriew

The baptism in 1805 has the parent as Jane with no father.
