I recently rediscovered some pages from an old family bible thatdetail 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. Maybe 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 March 27th Anno Domini 1778
Mary Rowntree Daughter of James Gilbert born May 11th Anno Domini 1787
Catherine Rowntree Daughter of Thos. & Mary born June 10th AD 1803
James Rowntree February 7th AD 1806
Mildred Rowntree ----(Sept.?) 19th(?) 1809
Betsy Rowntree ....... 1811
Nancy Rowntree.......1813 or 1815?
Sarah Rowntree Daughter of M. Price 2nd wife of Thos. Rowntree born 18 January 1790
Mary 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
Mary Rowntree first wife of Thos. Rowntree Daughter of James Gilbert Died April 5th 1815 aged 27 years 10 (?) mo 25 days
Mildred 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
Melby Janes Baby 1851
Page titled Marriages
Thomas Rowntree son of Richardson Rowntree married Polly Gilbert March 11th Anno Domini 18__ (Can't make out anything except 18)
Second Marriage to Sarah Price Daughter of Matthew Price Sept. (?) 10th Anno Dom. 1815
Caty Rowntree married to ..............Nov. 28th AD 1820(?)
Mildred Rowntree maried to Wm. S. Smith July 18th AD 1824
James L. Rowntree married to Mucsadora (?) ….December 4th AD 1825
Betsy Rowntree Married Felix Landess(?) the 18th June 1826
Nancy Rowntree Married to Wm. Smith the 22nd (23rd?) October 1827
Mary Rowntree Married to ....... on the 20th of May 1834
Ann Rowntree Married 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 Mary E Mayfield, they were my great grandmother's grandparents.
W G Rowntree Married to Mary E Mayfield……..July (?) 184…..
Anyway, that's my interpretation of the pages, perhaps someone out there has information to correct or complete what I have here.
