General Notes: Husband - Griffith Rowland


Both the Jones and Rowland families came to America about 1795, settling first near Ebensburg, Cambria County, Pennsylvania. The Rowlands continued to make their home in Cambria County, locating about 1800 in Conemaugh township, where Mr. Rowland became a land owner and followed farming. Settling in the wilderness, he hewed out a home for himself and there spent the remainder of his life.
