Family of Lewis ROSE and Agnes MCGOWAN

Lewis ROSE b. 1819 Oct797 at Rockland Co., NY797.
Agnes MCGOWAN b. 1819~4290 at Mamaroneck, Westchester Co., NY797.

Married797.

At present, there is no direct documentation, other than unsourced family history, that Agnes Rose was the daughter of James and Clarisa (Lockwood) McGowan. Corroboration that Agnes may have been the sister of William McGowan is indicated by the name of William's son, Lewis Rose McGowan, and DNA matches between several descendants of William McGowan and a descendant of Lewis and Agnes Rose.

In the 1865 census, Agnes Rose is listed4306 as the mother of 9. Only 8 children have been identified, assuming the assumptions for the names of Lewis Charles, Agnes Rebecca, Emma Elizabeth and John Edward are correct.

Child 1. Sarah

The 1918 marriage record1728 for Lyman Mead Lockwood to Emily (Bertram) Paschke lists his parents as Lyman Mead Lockwood, and Sarah Ellen Rose, born in Little Britain, NY. The 1860 census for New Windsor, NY, lists the post office as Little Britain. The 1875 census for Deerpark, NY, lists Sarah Lockwood as the wife of Lyman Lockwood; Sarah's age as 32 (born ~1843); and birthplace as Orange County. Her full name and marriage to Lyman Lockwood is assumed from that information.

Child 2. Lewis

Of Lewis Charles Rose: Donermeyer797 has the 2nd child of Lewis and Agnes Rose as "Lewis C.," born abt 1845. In 1850, Lewis C, age 5, appears as a child of Lewis and Agnes Rose. In 1855, the second oldest child of Lewis and Agnes is listed as Charles, age 9. In 1865, Lewis C Rose was listed as age 18, assumed to be the same person. His full name is assumed from that information.

Child 4. Emma

Donermeyer797 has the fourth daughter of Lewis and Agnes Rose as "Emma C.," born abt 1850. Donermeyer also lists a third daughter Elizabeth, born abt 1849. However, only Elizabeth appears in 1855 and 1860, and Emma E appears in 1865. It's unlikely that Emma would not have appeared in either the 1855 or 1860 census. This child's full name is assumed to be Emma Elizabeth from that information.

Child 6. John

Donermeyer797 has the third son of Lewis and Agnes Rose as Edward, born abt 1854. In 1855, Edward, age 1, is listed4290 as the third son. In 1865, John E Rose, age 11, is listed as a child of Lewis and Agnes Rose. His full name is assumed from that information.
