Derbyshire / Re: Rowland/Roland - Huguenots in Duffield, Derbyshire

To all of those theories on William Rowland, I'd like to add one of my own:
A Samuel Rowland married Hannah Horsley 1 May 1759 at Arnold (close to Greasley, I believe),
their children all baptized at Arnold:
Sarah 6 Apr 1760
Samuel 21 Sep 1761
Hannah 10 Mar 1763
William 23 Dec 1764
Thomas 27 Aug 1767
Mary 12 Apr 1772
I believe it is their sons showing up in the Greasely marriages:
Samuel md Ann Sheldon 1790
William md Amy Leivers 1787
Thomas md Sarah Twells 1787
Both William and Thomas's marriage entries [don't have Samuel's entry] show that all parties are "of this parish"
This theory seems more likely than the lone William Rowland from Shottle in Greasely, though I can't prove it either.
