Joseph Rowett - photo hanging in Kapunda Museum



Richard Rowett (my 4x Great Grandfather) (1802-1859) ran a general store in Kapunda and was also a miner. He was the licensee of the Prince of Wales hotel in 1858 and died in Victoria Township in 1859 (a suburb of Kapunda).

His (7th) son, Charles Rowett (1844-1896) is my 3rd great grand Uncle - He had the Point Pass Hotel; prior to this, he owned the Morning Star Hotel, Prince of Wales Hotel and Victoria Hotel in Kapunda. Later, he owned the Marrabel Hotel.

Richards 1st son (my 3x Great grandfather), Joseph Rowett (1825-1898) was Mayor of Kapunda 1879-1880. Joseph had the Prince Alfred Hotel in Kapunda from 1861-1871 (photo in the comments section.)
Joseph, his brother William and Robert Hooper went into partnership and built the Kapunda Mill, which they ran for 20 years.
Joseph was also the Magistrate and Chairman, and trustee of the Sir Franklin Lodge of Oddfellows.
