"Evening Times" Cumberland, Maryland, Thu 12 Jan 1905: 
"Lonaconing, Md., Jan 12-Mr. Michael Rowan, one of our oldest residents, was found dead in 
his home yesterday afternoon. Since the death of his wife over two years ago, he had been 
living alone. Mr. Rowan had been in poor health for a year or more, suffering from asthma 
and dropsy, which finally caused his death. He was employed by the C & P as watchman at 
the crossing near the depot. The deceased was born in County Mayo nearly 78 years ago. 
Three sons, Thomas J., Michael and James, and three brothers, Patrick, Daniel, Thomas, and 
two sisters, Mrs. Leopold Berkhart, (sic-should be Berkenbaugh) of Lonaconing, and Mrs. 
Bridget Calligan, of Pittsburgh, are left to mourn his demise. His aged mother, now in her 
hundredth year, is not expected to life (sic).
