hi valerie,
this was not as simple as first thought, due to many rowbothams going to USA and Canada. But William was born Macclesfield c.1885 to Edwin and Sarah (nee Murray). William was youngest of seven, with John and George the ELDEST. Father was BORN c. 1842 of George. There was a 14 year old english born William R. working as a servant in Canada in 1890, who led to one line of thinking.Anyway , there were numerous Rowbothams in Cheshire and Lancashire at the time. Florence seemed to travel back home several times with children.
