Thanks Ken,
You found the marriage!! Rowland Lee's gravestone is in ERROR!
Rowland Lee obviously DID marry Zillah (Adams) Tinkham.
In 1866, Allen Adams [Zillah's brother] sold land to Rowland Lee and his
wife Fanny Lee.
In 1870 Zilla Tinkham was listed with her children and a 59 year old Roland
Lee in the household.
(In 1880 she was listed as Zilla Lee, widow.)
Zillah [possibly] definitely remarried Rowland Lee, 4 Aug 1874, in Allen
Co., IN.
Rowland Lee witnessed a will in 1877.
Will Book:. Henry Roberts of Troy Township, Whitley County, Indiana. To
Sally (wife) bat at her death equally to my children except Emeline is to
have $100 more than the other children. Signed 18 January 1877. Henry
Roberts (SEAL) Witnesses - Rowland Lee, Levi Adams. Sworn to and subscribed
on 28 August 1878 before James Reider, Clerk.
Lee Rowland - died September 26 1873 !!!!! aged 65 years He is buried in the
Tinkham plot in Adams Cemetery
His dates are obviously off!!!! [Since the 1877 will was probated in 1878,
the death of any witness would have been noted.]
Initially he was incorrectly listed in the cemetery as Rowland, Lee.
Jeanette Brown went out to the cemetery and reported that he was in fact Mr.
Rowland Lee, not the reverse. The correction of his name on the web was then
made. Thanks Jeanette.
So there is the saga of Rowland Lee. Am trying to find who he is. Probably
related somehow.
