Rowan family, Martin Family
Hi there,
I'm looking for more information on my Rowan lineage.
My great-grandmother was named Edith Rowan (born around 1892). She married Francis Martin (1878-1947, born in Watervliet, New York). Edith's parents were Edward Rowan and Margaret Johnson, and it was believed her parents were born in Quebec.
Edith Rowan's siblings (children of Edward and Margaret) are Harold Rowan, Alfred Rowan and Margaret Rowan. Either Harold or Alfred went as Ned.
My grandmother, daughter of Edith Rowan and Francis Martin, was Edith Martin (born around 1913 in New York; her brother Francis Martin Jr. was born 1921).
Edith Martin married my grandfather Adrian P Burke. The Honourable Adrian P Burke and Edith Martin had three kids: Adrian Burke, Edith Burke and Francis Martin Burke (my dad).
I'm looking for information on the Rowans (and the Martins). The Rowans lived in Quebec for some time but later moved to New York City (and possibly New Jersey).
I don't know much about the Martins at all, though there is a library in the Bronx named after my grandfather Francis Martin (he was also a judge).
If you might know anything about my family members, please feel free to get in touch!
Thanks so much,
Tyler
