Thomas Row (1754-1840) married Rachel Keeling and served in the Revolutionary War from 1776 to 1778. The family moved from King and Queen County to Orange County, Virginia in 1779, following an uncle (Ernest Row) who had already made such a move.

Abbie was born in Culpeper County, Virginia, and married Annie Juliet Rosser in 1893 in Summers County, West Virginia.
