DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Henry by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Henry:
Rowley-2152 and Rowley-1038 do not represent the same person because: The birth record for Bateman shows birth name and birth date inconsistent with later records for Henry B. Rowley (e.g. census records and deed)
Rowley-2152 and Rowley-1038 appear to represent the same person because: I believe it is a misreading of the 1850 census that supports the separation of 10 years.
The 1850 census image is quite clear, showing his age as 83 at that time. There is also the question of the names Henry Bateman Rowley (older) vs Bateman Rowley (younger).
