In "The Great Migration Begins" Volume III, by Robert Charles Anderson the marriage information for Henry Rowley states:

Marriage: (1) By about 1630 _____ _____, probably daughter of William Palmer of Plymouth (TAG 32:40-41), but see Comments below; she died by 1633. (2) Plymouth 17 Oct. 1633 Anne (Elsdon) Blossom ("Anna, the late wife of Tho: Blossome") [PCR 1:16, TAG 63:74]

In the Comments section is the paragraph:

Florence Barclay, in her article on William Palmer of Plymouth, supplied the evidence in favor of the position that the mother of Moses Rowley was a daughter of William Palmer ( see also PCR 3:45-46 ); she thought that Sarah Rowley who married Jonathan Hatch was a daughter of Henry Rowley, but not necessarily with the Palmer wife (which would imply yet another wife before the presumed ____ Palmer) [TAG 32:40-41]

The TAG articles that I also used include Whole number 250, Volume 63, Number 2; April 1988, Page 74, which states:

Thomas Blossom married, at St. Clement's Church, Cambridge, 10 Nov. 1605 Anne Helsdon or Elsden, who was possibly the "An," daughter of Cuthbert and Margaret Elsden, baptized at Soham, co. Cambridge, 23 June 1583.....

So, it seems to me that the Palmer connection comes in with Henry Rowley's first (or possibly 2nd) wife and that Ann (Elsdon/Heilsdon) Blossom was his 2nd (or third) wife and had no connection with the Palmers.
