12 13 Sumrall, Timothy, Rowntree Family Bible (Genealogy.com), EmailCorrespondence with others interested, http://www.genforum.genealogy.com/rowntree/messages/32.html. 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 February 7th AD 1806 ildred Rowntree ----(Sept.?) 19th(?) 1809 Betsy Rowntree... 1811 Nancy Rowntree...1813 or 1815? Sarah Rowntree Daughter of. Price 2nd wife of Thos. Rowntree born 18 January 1790 ary Rowntree Daughter of Thos. & Sarah Rowntree born July 16th AD 1816 William Rowntree November 5th (or 3rd?) AD 1817 - this was my ancestor Anna Rowntree August 31st AD 1819 Page titled Deaths ary Rowntree first wife of Thos. Rowntree Daughter of James Gilbert Died April 5th 1815 aged 27 years 10 (?) mo 25 days ildred Smith Daughter of Thos. Rowntree Died August 4th (or 11th?) AD 1826 Aged 17 years 11 (?) mo 15 days Thos. Rowntree Son of Richardson Rowntree Died July 15th AD 1828 aged 50 years 3 months and (? can't make it out) days. Page titled Births but lists slaves, and not sure if spelling is bound or bornd Daniel A Slave of Sarah Rowntree Born... 1834 James Born in Oct. 1836 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. (?) 10th Anno Dom. 1815 Caty Rowntree married to...nov. 28th AD 1820(?) ildred Rowntree maried to Wm. S. Smith July 18th AD 1824 James L. Rowntree married to ucsadora (?).December 4th AD 1825 Betsy Rowntree arried Felix Landess(?) the 18th June 1826 Nancy Rowntree arried to Wm. Smith the 22nd (23rd?) October 1827 ary Rowntree arried to... on the 20th of ay 1834 Ann Rowntree arried to... on the 23rd of... 1840 W G Rowntree... This is my ancestor, funny that it's the last entry and can hardly read anything more than his name, but we know he married ary E ayfield, they were my great grandmother's grandparents. W G Rowntree arried to ary E ayfield..july (?) 184.. Anyway, that's my interpretation of the pages, perhaps someone out there has information to correct or complete what I have here.
