I don't know if there is a connect, but I am a descendant of the Rowbothams coming from Beverly near Hull, UK.the earliest Rowbotham I can trace is Joseph Rowbotham who was a market gardner who lived in Beverly just outside the town gates.He married Ann Sawyer Bell b about 1890. Ann had been married to a man by the name of Bell who went off to war and never returned.she had two children by Mr. Bell (some records indicate the name was "Bull" not sure which is correct. In 1832 Joseph and ann had a son William Rowbotham, 1833-34 another son Edward followed by several other children.One of the Bell Children, female, maried a man by the name of Kitching. About 1854, William, Edward and their mother and their immediate families emigrated to Canada, to the town of Staynor, Ontario. There still residing are hundreds of Rowbotham dexcendants as they all had large familes with good survivial rates. I hve more specific information, I am recalling this bit of family history from memory. If you see a connection contact me at [email protected] and we can provide more specific information.
