The 1890 census was almost entirely destroyed, and the few parts that are left don't include Massachusetts.  https://www.familysearch.org/en/blog/what-happened-to-the-1890-us-census

Thanks everyone. Theresa Rowe (Rhodes/Kelley) had a son before marrying these two men. He was William Henry Rowe and was 14 when she was murdered. Also, it states there is a 5 year old daughter living when Theresa is killed. I can't find her name.
Any help would be appreciated. Theresa had a tragic life losing three children in infancy and then being abused and killed by her spouse. I want to find her children.

When did she arrive in the USA ?

Was the child born in the UK or USA ?

Hi Sandra, I honestly don't know. Someone said he was born in England. I am not sure if she was single when she had him. He existed because he's mentioned in the newspapers.

How do you know he was called William Henry Rowe ?

There was a discrepancy in those newspaper reports.  One reporting he was still living and another claiming the daughter was the only child living.
