Elizabeth Rowe was baptized on 21 Apr 1772 Buckland Monachorum, DEV, ENG

.^2,3
Elizabeth Rowe died in Sep 1816 Hatchill, Par. of Bickleigh, DEV, ENG; (assumes correct id from burial record, but age does match the baptism date. There's a Hatshill Farm & Wood SE of Bickleigh, fairly close to Leigh and Hele.)^4,5 She was buried on 6 Sep 1816 Bickleigh, DEV, ENG, the index showing an Elizabeth Rowe aged 44 of Hatchill, Bickleigh. I am guessing that she might be the broken off headstone between her brothers Joseph and John.^4,6
