What a fascinating thread. I would love to know how you are related to William Rowe as he was my G x 3 Grandfather.

You mention that he is your ancestor

William Rowe married Eliza Russell in 1842 in Langport

Their children:
Mary Elizabeth Rowe Born 1845 Langport Somerset
Louisa Rowe Born 1847 Langport Somerset m John Darby
William Rowe Born 13/11/1850 Alderney m Leonie Quinain
Sophia Rowe Born 30/3/1854 Alderney
Matilda Rowe Born 4/4/1857 Alderney m Joseph Laine
Alfred John Rowe Born 16/4/1860 Alderney m Mary Falla
Amelia Jane Rowe Born 18/2/1863 Alderney

The Rowe's moved to Alderney between 1847 and 1850. William was a Gardener.

William Rowe died in Alderney on 4/11/1877. Eliza Rowe between 1881 and 1891 (date not known)

I do not know what happened to Mary Rowe, she disappears from trace after the 1871 Census.

Sophia Rowe, I lose any trace of after the 1871 Census also

Louisa Rowe moved to Northamptonshire in the 1860's (she had a position as a Domestic for a family there) and married John Darby in 1868 and went on to have 9 children there. She died in 1911.

Alfred Rowe moved to Guernsey circa 1883. He married Mary Falla in Guernsey and had 11 children of which 7 survived infancy.

Amelia Rowe was my G x 2 Grandmother she moved to Guernsey in 1881 with her sister Matilda Rowe. They were Dressmakers.

Amelia died in 1883 of TB in Guernsey and Matilda stayed marrying a Mr Laine in 1886 in Guernsey. Matilda did not have any children, but looked after Amelia's son after she died (my Great Grandfather)

William Rowe as we know married Leonie Quinain and had 3 children, they also moved to Guernsey, but William and Leonie returned to Alderney after 1901. I don't know what happened to their eldest son William Alfred Rowe. In 1891 he was working in the Quarries in Guernsey but there is no trace of him by 1901 anywhere.

Daughter Louisa Rowe married George Clemence in Guernsey. They moved to Islington London with their children and had 2 more in Islington. Louisa died Q4 1918.

(My records have her being Louisa Felicity Rowe rather than Louisa Mary Ann Rowe though)

John Rowe (known also as Jack) was still in Guernsey by 1911 for he had married Hilda Parsons, but I don't know what happened to him post 1911.

Look forward to hearing from you

I have Jack Quinain in my family tree too, known as Uncle Jack. We also have Mignot. I am researching the Millington and Rowe-Buckingham's of the island of which the Quinain married into.
