Some good news! I have got a reply from my inquiry on Ancestry and am now in contact with a niece of Major Rowell.

Yes, Ernest L. Rowell, JR was an Army Officer. He was my Uncle E.L. The family has pictures of him in uniform.

Unfortunately Mrs. E.L. Rowell, my Aunt Shasta, died before my Uncle E. L. did. Uncle E. L. died a number of years ago in Ft. Myers, FL where they had moved after he retired from the phone company. After the war was over, he went to work for the phone company as an engineer. His father (my grandfather) had worked for the phone company too (as did my father).

I'll be glad to talk to Enrico. What kind of information does he want about my uncle?"
I dont have an email address for her yet, but we`ll find a way to get you in touch with her.
