Hi did you find any information. I know this is an old post. I am descendant from Avon Roy Mitchell Rowland second wife. And have also been looking for info on the family. And where my half uncle may be. I did find info that Elsie Charlotte may have died in 1980 but can not be certain.

Lots of info on 'Locke' Avon Roy Mitchell Rowland died of cancer in the Denmark (West Australia) Hospital on 24 Sep 1980

I made a register of all the burials at Denmark cemetery a couple of years ago. At time of compiling, burials were to June 2018.
It is searchable by Date, Grave Number and Alphabetical Order.
Locke is there, but he appears to be the only Rowland.

Anyway, have a look through the lists

OK I have made some progress

John Mitchell Rowland emigrated to Canada, possibly in the 1970s and believe he may have died in 2012. Now know his wife was called Janice Elicia Rowland who was from England, thanks to Mel Constable above who found this. Now to try and trace her, still no clue what happened to Elsie though

Have now established that John did pass away in Canada in 2012, and his mother had emigrated to Canada in the 1980s, where she died. I traced Janice Elicia Rowland to England, so have got somewhere now
