Mike, the man who was born in Hebron 1714 was Nathan Rowley, son of Samuel. Nathan and Elnathan are not the same names. [[Rowley-3028|Ezra Rowley] b. 1742 was the son of Elnathan and Lydia (Welles) Rowley. All of this is well sourced, and I have put it back together correctly. You need to merge this profile. Since I guess you're related to Ezra I would suggest changing the dates and places and then merging with Elnathan Rowley-564
posted by Anne B
Rowley-699 and Rowley-564 appear to represent the same person because: Abigail Cone was the first wife and Lydia Wells was the 2nd one.
