Row (Rowe, Rowes)

Submitted by edpope on

Row 3.10.1799 adv at Curran,s / 19.10.1799 again

Rowes at Joyce's 16.1.1806 / Rowes at Hodget's 27.10.1826

Row is a common name, and Rowe (which Godwin might well have spelt Row), very common, Rowes as a surname is quite rare, and the Rowes noted above may have been a couple, plural of Rowe. If so those at Joyce's may have been John Rowe (DNB 1764-1832) Unitarian minister at Lewins Mead, Bristol, and his wife Mary who died in 1825. I have yet to study the Hodget circle. William Rowes of 26 Surry Street, Strand, gent, insured SunFire 1804.
