Profesión: Itinerant portrait and miniature painter

Comentarios: French identifled a Reuben Roulery as the instructor of Philip Hewins (see entry) in Albany in 1832. It seems extremely likely that was actually Reuben Rowley since there is no other evidence of a Reuben Roulery working in that area and it is known that Reuben Rowley was in Albany about 1832.
