Research Notes
LDS have our Greets in the right place and noone else. We can mine LDS
right back to John Greet born about 1570 in
Saint J on R.
Rebecca Rowter is unclear. There are two christenings at St Gerrans,
one mile or so east of Saint
Just In Roseland (FHO has nothing extra)
(1) 1734, no parents
(2) 1743, father Robert Rowter, no mother specified
Searching on Robert Rowter yeilds a probable brother christened 1729 St
Gerrans. But also two other Roberts
(1) christened 1722 St Ewe
(1) christened 1745 St Ewe
St Ewe is about 12 miles NE of Saint
Just In Roseland. We seem to have two familes here. LDS seems to have
two streams going back, one in each location
So we will give her a father and brother.
Robert born 1699 has a father Geoge, but no further information in LDS
or FHO. No mothers on any of the christenings going back, but is that
Thomas second name for Mary a pointer to anything? Probably not. John
Greet had an elder sister Thomasin.
FHO had John and Rebekah's marriage
Acknowledgement
Susan Old, the Online Parish Clerk for St Columb Major supplied a
wonderful response to a query on ColonTippett's baptism. She added
three
generations back, for someone who had been a very murky figure to
us. The OPC site
for St Gerrans now has a graveyard
index to be checked
out. Get Diane Pascoe input from GR Diane
Hineywell's tree (GR) has stuff to add
