Walker and Rowley

[Gibel]

Charles was baptised  on 30 September at Colwyn Bay Parish Church. The address is Ashleigh Part St Southport parents Walter Thomas and Eleanor Rowley image on Ancestry

I would agree that he is in the Sedbergh area at School in 1900

He married at St Paul C of E Church in Southport in 1910. That was the local parish church to Part St. It no longer exists. Marriages on www.lan-opc.org.uk stop at 1909.

Walter Thomas Rowley died in Southport 19November 1924 address 20 Oxford Rd Birkdale Southport. He left £6545 7s 3d. His executors were solicitors.

His wife Eleanor died in 1905 at 27 Cambridge Rd Southport. Walter was granted administration of her estate of £290 19s.

1911 Walter is a visitor to a Widow Ann Rowley living in Shotton Flintshire. She is presumably some relation.
