  • John Rowan (* 12. Juli 1773 bei York, Province of Pennsylvania; † 13. Juli 1843 in Louisville, Kentucky) war ein US-amerikanischer Politiker (Demokratisch-Republikanische Partei), der den Bundesstaat Kentucky in beiden Kammern des Kongresses vertrat. John Rowan zog mit seiner Familie aus Pennsylvania nach Kentucky, als er ungefähr zehn Jahre alt war. Nach Ende seiner Schulausbildung studierte er in Lexington Jura und wurde 1795 in die Anwaltskammer aufgenommen, woraufhin er in Louisville als Jurist zu praktizieren begann. Im Jahr 1799 war Rowan Delegierter zum zweiten Verfassungskonvent des Staates Kentucky in Frankfort. Zwischen 1804 und 1806 übte er das Amt des Secretary of State in der Staatsregierung aus, ehe er am 4. März 1807 als Vertreter des 3. Wahldistrikts von Kentucky ins US-Repräsentantenhaus einzog. Dort verblieb er bis zum 3. März 1809. Von 1813 bis 1817 war er Abgeordneter im Repräsentantenhaus von Kentucky, ehe er zwischen 1819 und 1821 als Richter am Appellationsgericht des Staates fungierte. Nach erfolgreicher Kandidatur nahm John Rowan ab dem 4. März 1825 einen der beiden Sitze Kentuckys im Senat der Vereinigten Staaten ein. Während seiner sechsjährigen Amtsperiode stand er dem Justizausschuss des Senats vor. Nach dem Ausscheiden aus dem Kongress wurde er 1839 mit dem Abschluss eines Vertrages mit Mexiko beauftragt. Von 1838 bis zu seinem Tod war er Präsident der Kentucky Historical Society. John Rowan, dessen Neffe Robert Todd Lytle zwischen 1833 und 1835 ebenfalls Abgeordneter im US-Repräsentantenhaus war, starb einen Tag nach seinem 70. Geburtstag in Louisville. Das Rowan County in Kentucky wurde nach ihm benannt. (de)
  • John Rowan (July 12, 1773 – July 13, 1843) was a 19th-century politician and jurist from the U.S. state of Kentucky. Rowan's family moved from Pennsylvania to the Kentucky frontier when he was young. From there, they moved to Bardstown, Kentucky, where Rowan studied law with former Kentucky Attorney General George Nicholas. He was a representative to the state constitutional convention of 1799, but his promising political career was almost derailed when he killed a man in a duel stemming from a drunken dispute during a game of cards. Although public sentiment was against him, a judge found insufficient evidence against him to convict him of murder. In 1804, Governor Christopher Greenup appointed Rowan Secretary of State, and he went on to serve in the Kentucky House of Representatives and the U.S. House of Representatives. In 1819, Rowan was appointed to the Kentucky Court of Appeals, serving until his resignation 1821. He was again elected to the state legislature in 1823. With the state reeling from the Panic of 1819, Rowan became the leader of a group of legislators dedicated to enacting laws favorable to the state's large debtor class. He believed the will of the people was sovereign and roundly denounced the Court of Appeals for striking down debt relief legislation as unconstitutional. He led the effort to impeach the offending justices, and when that effort failed, spearheaded a movement to abolish the court entirely and replace it with a new one, touching off the Old Court – New Court controversy. New Court partisans in the legislature elected Rowan to the U.S. Senate in 1824. During his term, the nascent Whig Party ascended to power in the state legislature, and at the expiration of his term in 1831, the Whigs replaced him with party founder Henry Clay. After his term in the Senate, Rowan returned to Kentucky, where he served as the first president of the Louisville Medical Institute and the Kentucky Historical Society. In 1840, he was appointed to a commission to prosecute land claims of U.S. citizens against the Republic of Mexico, but resigned his commission in 1842 because of failing health. He died July 13, 1843 and was buried on the grounds of Federal Hill, his estate in Bardstown. According to tradition, Stephen Collins Foster, a distant relative of Rowan's, was inspired to write the ballad My Old Kentucky Home after a visit to Federal Hill in 1852, but later historians have been unable to conclude whether or not Foster ever visited the mansion at all. The mansion is now owned by the state of Kentucky and forms the centerpiece of My Old Kentucky Home State Park. (en)
