  • Notes 
    • Married a Norman Anstey. I have another Norman Anstey, born 1897, but unsure if this is the same person.
      Birthday book shows a Dora A.B. Rowsell, born Nov 28 1906.
      Arthur William Rowsell's diary says a daughter was born to Israel and Fanny on Friday the 27th November of 1908.
