• Notes

  Martin McGowan appears to be Isabel's last husband. According to Norman Forte, my husband's grandfather, Isabel was married three times, the last time to a McGowan. Martin was listed as age 40. He and his wife's ages are younger than othcords would indicate. He was fairly well to do in the 1870 Pennsylvania census. His occupation is unreadable, but he owned $4000.00 worth of property and $600.00 worth of personal property. Only his parents were foreign born and he was a citizen of the U.S. According to McGowan bible records, both his parents were from Ireland. He was married to Isabel age 34. She and her two children by Mr. Rauch were listed along with her two children by him. They probably were married around 1865 as their daughter, Isabel McGowan, was age 4. That means that the mother, Isabel's second husband would have died between 1860 and 1865. Only Marie C. Rauch attended school within the year at age 13. Harry Rauch at age 16 was listed as an errand boy by trade. None were listed as not able to read or write. All were born in Philadelphia. (F-246) No census entries could be found for Isabel McGowan, Martin McGowan or Harry Rauch in the Pennsylvania 1880 census. Marie C. Rauch was in the 1880 census, then married, at age 23 to Henry L. Forte. She was listed as Minnie Forte with both she and her parents being born in Pennsylvania. They had two children, Wilmer, age 3 and Edith, age 1 in that census. (F-257)
