Sophey Rowe (1826)

1841 Census

Sophey Rowe born 1826 in Wing, Buckinghamshire

2nd daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth Row

1841 Census (shown in picture above)

Aged 15 (located on right page, 11th line down) , you can also see on the 7th line down on the same page

Elizabeth Row aged 45, William Garner aged 70?, John Garner aged 20, Hannah Garner aged 20 and finally what looks like Samuel Row aged 12.

So far no other information has been found (by me at least)

This seems to be the year Joseph Row died and maybe Elizabeth moved into the Garner house?

The family name still seems to be Row.

NOTE: #1
I've found a census record from 1871 that includes this information -
Living at 126 Workhouse Lane, Leighton Buzzard
Jesse Rowe aged 30 (head, labourer)
Sophia Rowe aged 44 (wife, plaiter?) showing born in Wing, Buckinghamshire, abt 1827
David Heley aged 20 (Son) showing born in Wing, Buckinghamshire 1851
Henry ? Heley aged 18 (daughter) showing born in Wing, Buckinghamshire 1853
Ann J Heley aged 16 (daughter)
Susan R Heley aged 6 (daughter)

NOTE: #2
Another census, this time from 1891, that follows Jesse Rowe and Sophia Rowe
Showing again born in Wing, Buckinghamshire this time abt 1828.
Now living in the Bromley St.Leonards area of London.
The address looks to be 97 Marner Street, and we have Jesse aged 61 and still a labourer, and Sohpia aged 63.
They also seem to have a border living in the same address, who's aged 30 and a washerwoman.

A few things that stand out are the obvious name she gives, if in fact this is Sophey Rowe, looking at the writing it does clearly show the name written as Sophia, but with the birth place and birth date you gotta wonder if this is here. Also the age she give on the 1871 census, 14 years older than her husband? Why also does the children have the Heley surname and not Rowe? Math don't add up do they. I thought it was worth putting this here, if there is any evidence that proves otherwise then it stays.
