What happened to Frank Rowe after 1880?

Frank Rowe, son of William Rowe and Catherine Gay Nelmes. I have discounted a Frank Rowe married to Eve or Ewa Rowe as he was born in Michigan and there is another Frank, son of a Michigan family. The birth dates also differ. I have also discounted a Frank Rowe who died in Ohio with the same birth year. There is another Frank Rowe born in Ohio that is a better fit. He was most likely still alive in 1903 as the 1903 death certificate for his father has all the children alive but one: Elizabeth Lyda.

Where was Reuban Sylvester Rowe in 1900?

Reuban Rowe, son of William Rowe and Catherine Gay Nelmes. We have a pretty complete record for Reuben. It would be nice to find out where he was in 1900. He wasn\\\'t with his father unless he wasn\\\'t recorded. Another mystery is that he made his mark on his WWI draft card, but the 1910 and 1920 census records said he could read and write.

What Happened to Herbert Rowe after 1880?

Herbert, son of William and Catherine (Nelmes) Rowe. Currently researching a Herbert Rowe in Elk Grove, Sacramento, California. There are a lot of corresponding facts with the exception of his age which is five too young. He was most likely still alive in 1903 as the 1903 death certificate for his father has all the children alive but one: Elizabeth Lyda.
