Rowland Deevy
« on: Friday 24 July 15 22:31 BST (UK) »
Hi.. I am hoping somebody can help with information on Rowland William Deevy, born Manchester.
After his marriage to Sarah Pollitt at Manchester cathedral in 1847 he seems to disappear. I have tried various surname changes but nothing! Hope a Rootschatter will be able to help with this brick wall.
Thank you.

Father is Terence on the 1841 - occ Tailor - marriage cert says father is Thomas occ draper.  1851 shows him as Thomas b Ireland

His mother was also Sarah and the 1854 death was a 64yr old as per www.LancashireBMD.org.uk

His sister Jane died 1852
