Rowsey, Elwood Anthony, 1898-1973

Information on Rowsey’s life and work has proven difficult to find. He was born in Appalachia, in Buena Vista, Virginia, but spent most of his life outside the region. He earned degrees from Ashland College (now Ashland University) in Ohio, Oskaloosa College in Iowa, and Auburn Theological Seminary in New York. His only known pastorate was the First Westminster Presbyterian Church in Toledo, Ohio, which apparently no longer exists.

Additional information can be found in the biographical sketch published alongside his sermon in William Stidger, If I Had Only One Sermon to Preach on Immortality (New York: Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1929).

Rowsey User Guide

Robert H. Ellison

The User Guide for the Library of Appalachian Preaching is a Google Sheet that can be searched, sorted, and downloaded for offline use.

At the moment, Rowsey has only one sermon in the Library; it has a Guide of its own so the records will be complete. It includes the title, sermon text, date and place the sermon was preached, and so on. This information is available in the master list of sermons as well.
