Classification: Query
Surnames: ROHWER
This is a courtesy post. I am not researching this surname. Information on Mr. Rohwer was obtained when I received an obituary from the Davenport Library on a person of interest in my research.

Source:
The Davenport Democrat and Leader (Iowa)
Monday, Feb 14, 1910 (page 11)

LEAVES PROPERTY ENTIRELY TO WIFE
The last will and testament of the late Hinrich Rohwer which was filed in the district court today by Attorney L. M. Fisher provides that the entire estate shall go to the wife, Catherina Magdalena Rohwer to have and hold during her natural life time. The wife is made the executrix of the will and is exempted from giving bonds. The instruments bear the date of June 1, 1906, and was witnessed by John Heinz and George Butenschoen.

On this same page is the Obituary for Rohwer FUNERAL
However, some of the left side of the obituary notice was not copied and, therefore, cannot be completely or accurately transcribed with my posting. His name is spelled as Heinrich Rohwer. The funeral was held on Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m. Burial to be in Fairmount cemetery.

Hope this information is helpful to a ROWHER researcher.
