Part of the Rowley Name Study This family group began using several different spellings for the names of the same individual. Many of the church records use 'Rowell' or 'Rowel', while Federal and State records (Wills and Census) use 'Rowley'. Thomas [Rowley-38] and Thomas [Rowell-1699] and their associated families are the same people, but until definitive proof can be shown for the correct Last Name At Birth to merge the profiles, the following chart will be helpful in making proper connections. This uses Rowley-38 b.1643 as a start and goes through Thomas Rowley (abt.1647-abt.1708), Thomas Rowley (1671-1741), Samuel Rowley (1710-1811), on to Samuel and Nathan who's profiles have not been created. These match the profiles of Thomas Rowell (abt.1650-1708), Thomas Rowell (abt.1670-1741).
