Relationships
Father: John Rowles.
Mother: unknown.
John mentions his daughter Hester in his will. I haven’t found any other Esther Rowles who are the right age in the area, but gaps in the registers due to the Civil War mean that I may be missing some evidence.
Spouse: William Fords. Married 11 October 1680 in Hardwicke, Gloucestershire.
The marriage is recorded in the parish registers.
