General Notes: Husband - James Rowe


He lived at Castle Pollard, in the parish of Rathgraff, County Westmeath, Leinster, Ireland. It was a market and post town, on the road from Dublin to Granard, ten miles from Mullinger, and forty-two miles from Dublin. The parish is a fertile one, much of the land being limestone, and at the time that it was the home of James Rowe and his family, it had a parochial school of the Church of Ireland and six private schools. Near it was Pakenham Hall, the seat of Lord Longford, and Kincurk, the seat of William Pollard. In the neighborhood were other gentlemen's seats, and its environment was unusually attractive, both Lough Lane and Lough Derevaragh being not two miles distant. James Rowe is said to have had two children.
