    Hi There
    I am researching trying to trace my great great great grandmother and her parents and grandparents. I had searched for the on-line records without success can anyone help. She is Darthula Eliza Rowe was born in St. John Newfoundland in around 1812. Her siblings include at least an older sister.

    Her father is Elias Rowe who died before 1834 and is likely to have been born 1760-70. Elias had a sister Elizabeth born c1761 who married William Danson in 1786. William Danson was a Merchant with business connections in both St. John and Harbour Grace. The Danson family moved to Bristol England around 1800.

    There is a merchant called Elias Rowe in St. John born c1730 in Jersey, died 1810 in Barbadoes – I think he is either the father or uncle to Elias and Elizabeth. Can anyone help?

    Many thanks
    Chrissie
