Joyce, According to some papers that I have that were given to my uncle, the parents of George Rowland were: James and Mary(?) Rowland James was the son of Needham Rowland and Luisa(?) and grandson of William Rowland Children of George Rowland were: James, jehu, Ellen, Verdie, Maggie, Joe, Wesley, Isaac, and Mary. Mary Benton Rowland was called Mollie. I haven't checked any of this out yet, so not sure how complete it is. Melody info on who your George Rowland is--parents, > siblings--anything?
