It was nice to get your phone call this morning. I will try to attach some of my data for the Swindell/Swindle family of White Co TN.

Dear Rowland Researchers,

I very recently came across the data that we had all been seeking. That is a confirmation of all of the children of Benjmin Rowland (1775-1857) of Warren County TN.

It was in a publication that I had not seen until a few days ago; "Tennessee Tidbits 1778-1914" which is a three volume set of abstracted records from across Tennessee.

Volume III contained data from Warren County TN. I am attaching to this e-mail a copy of the Benjamin Rowland data which identifies his heirs. I still have some problem with some of the daughters, but this is still very good information.

I hope to return to McMinnville, TN in the near future with a goal of getting copies of the original records at the court house.

Biography

ROBERT ROWLAND was born ca. 1716 in Britain or PA unverified1, and died 19 Jan 1782 in Botetourt Co. VA. He married Martha (?) Looney Bet. 1735 - 1739, who according to unproven tradition, was the daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Looney. Martha was born ca. 1718, probably in Ireland (?), and died between 1763-1769 in Augusta Co. VA5. Martha's name is almost always written with this (?) following her surname. It is known that the Rowlands had close ties to the Looney family and were neighbors in Virginia. Martha is not mentioned in her husband's will.

The exact year Robert and Martha arrived in Virginia is unknown. According to family bible records, their youngest son was born in December of 1741 in Augusta County, and the earliest known mention of Robert in the area as a member of the Augusta County Militia in 1742 under George Robinson. Many of the other men named in this militia are also in the early records of Lancaster and Chester Counties in Pennsylvania in the early 1700's,

A Seed-bed of the Republic: Early Botetourt County, by Robert Douthat Stoner, (1962)(pg. 19) Robert Looney owned several tracts of land, amounting to 863 acres, in 1742, on Looney's Mill Creek, which was named for him. Robert Looney had been granted lands at this River Crossing in 1742. The river crossing was known as Looney's Ferry. . . . (pg. 430) The Rowlands . . . settled south of the James on the waters of Looney's Creek and the Spreading Spring Branch as early as 1750".

The Rowlands became owners of large parcels of land in Virginia and Kentucky, and they seem to have been busy acquiring and disposing of land on a regular basis.
