Description
Photograph of a portrait of Thomas "Tomas" Rowland, brother of Sheriff William R. "Billy" Rowland and son of John Rowland, Sr., the Southern California pioneer, 1841. Rowland is seated at left with his legs crossed and his hand resting on a cloth-covered table at left. He is wearing a dark suit with a light shirt and dark leather shoes. He has a long dark beard and mustache and his hairline is receding. Zenobia Yorba de Rowland, Thomas Rowland's wife and daughter of Don Bernardo Yorba, is standing to the right and has her hand on his shoulder. She is wearing a long dress with long sleeves and a white lace collar. Her dark hair is tied behind her head and parted in the middle. (Note: Zenobia Yorba de Rowland's name was also often spelled as Cenobia, and Rowland was some times written in Spanish as Rolend in many early records.)
