     Joseph Rowe was christened on 30 Jan 1748/49 at Bere Ferrers, DEV, ENG; entry shows Joseph as son of "Joseph Row & Hannah his wife" (under 1748 OS, so 1749 ns).2,3
     Joseph Rowe married Elizabeth Cross on 14 Jul 1769 at Buckland Monachorum, DEV, ENG, entry #60 reads: Banns of marriage between: Joseph Rowe and Elizabeth Coss (it really doesn't look like Cross) were published on ye eleventh eighteenth and twenty fifth days of Jun in ye year 1769 and [something I couldn't decipher]. Both were "of this Parish" married in the church by banns 14th day of July by me Vicar. X the mark of both, in presence of James Wood and Sampson Dote.4,5,6
     Joseph Rowe died cir. Oct 1811 ?Hele, Par. of Bickleigh, DEV, ENG; corroboration that this might be the correct Joseph Rowe death is the circumstantial evidence from the Conventionary Rentals 1811-1820 in the Roborough Estate papers which show Elizabeth Rowe as owing and paying rent on a tenement in Bickleigh from Sep 1811 thru 1820 (the only book checked so far).1,7 He was buried on 29 Oct 1811 at the Ch of St Andrews, Bere Ferrers, DEV, ENG, assumes correct id from the Bere Ferrers burial index, but is highly likely, albeit a tad later than the 29 Sep 1811 when Bickford's Tenement rental was in Elizabeth's name.1,7 Others say that Joseph Rowe died in 1820 at Hele Barton, Par. of Bickleigh, DEV, ENG, but I have not found any confirmation of this.5
     Cir. 1780 Joseph Rowe was living at Looseleigh Farm, Tamerton Foliot, DEV, ENG, which he rented. The 1851 census shows this as being at Plympton St Mary, Tamerton Foliott, with a Alford family in residence, farm being 128 acres and Payne family in Looseleigh House.5,8

E. & O. E. Some/most parish records are rather hard to read and names, places hard to interpret, particularly if you are unfamiliar with an area.
