6 Sources (con't) Sumrall, Timothy, Rowntree amily Bible (Genealogy.com), Correspondence with others interested, I recently rediscovered some pages from an old family bible that detail the children of Thomas Rowntree. They were very difficult to read and I'm hoping to obtain clearer copies. This is what I was able to decipher, and I think most of it is correct. aybe helpful to some other Rowntree/Rountree descendants. If I am able to get clearer copies I'll post whatever corrections may be necessary. Here's what I can make out from the pages: Page title Births Thos. Rowntree son of Richardson Rowntree arch 27th Anno Domini 1778 ary Rowntree Daughter of James Gilbert born ay 11th Anno Domini 1787 Catherine Rowntree Daughter of Thos. & ary born June 10th AD 1803 James Rowntree ebruary 7th AD 1806 ildred Rowntree ----(Sept.?) 19th(?) 1809 Betsy Rowntree Nancy Rowntree or 1815?

Page titled Births but lists slaves, and not sure if spelling is bound or bornd Daniel A Slave of Sarah Rowntree Born James Born in Oct Jane Bornd (bound?) 1832 (?) 1839 Jess Bornd (Bound?) 9th April 1841 Bill Bound 1843 Bob in 1845 Billy Bound Aug 1847 George in 1849 Benny 1851 elby Janes Baby 1851 Page titled arriages Thomas Rowntree son of Richardson Rowntree married Polly Gilbert arch 11th Anno Domini 18 (Can't make out anything except 18) Second arriage to Sarah Price Daughter of atthew Price Sept.
