I am still actively researching by g-g-grandfather, John Bowen, b: 1790 in either MA or ME. He married in 1815 in VT to Sylvia ROSE, moved into NY and lived in Ostego, Oswego and Onondaga counties and then by 1836 or so into Michigan where he died in 1841. Hard to break down this brick wall of who his parents and siblings where. Thanks - JoAnn

>From the web site http://search.labs.familysearch.org/ William S. Bowen, born in Connecticut, wife Ora Carter, parents Griffith and Mary Bowen. Wisconsin marriages 1836-1930. Marriage 10 January 1856, Plymouth, Sheboygan, WI. Bride's mother's name was Hannah Carter. I've found the Search labs family search a great help in tracking down family relatives.And easy to use!

My mother had an Uncle named Dickey Bowen. I have often wondered where his parents got that name. Now I see on Google Earth that there is an area called Dickey Island just east of Fayetteville, TN. Dickey Island is an area surrounded by a big bend in the river. I can't help but wonder if that was not the inspiration for his name. _____________ Rik Rasmussen

I was looking at the Fayetteville, TN area on Google Earth this morning and got surprise. I have been thinking that references to Franklin, TN were referring to the city of Franklin, just south of Nashville. But now I realize it is Franklin County, just east of Lincoln and Moore counties. Now a lot things make sense to me in a way they did not before. Funny how you can make a mistake like that after starring at the screen for too long. _____________ Rik Rasmussen On Fri, Aug 27, 2010 at 11:27 AM, Henrik Rasmussen <[email protected]>wrote: > Same here. > > Working back in time: > > Mary Jeanette Bowen 1930 living my mother born in Durham, NC > > Rawls Coston Bowen 1889 - 1973 my grandfather later moved to Durham, NC > > William Rich Bowen 1859 - 1931 my ggrandfather later in Durham, NC, died > in Toledo, OH > > Daniel Bowen (Boren) 1818 - 1897 wife: Clemintine Bradle, > fairly confident of this one, but some lingering doubts > > James Bowen (Boren) 1773 wife: Mary J..... not much to go on > here > > > All were around Lincoln County, TN, Franklin, TN > > _____________ > Rik Rasmussen > > > On Fri, Aug 27, 2010 at 9:58 AM, Pat Higley <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Yes - Have a real brick wall. >> Pat >> >> -------------------------------------------------- >> From: "Alana Knochel Bauman" <[email protected]> >> Sent: Friday, August 27, 2010 6:04 AM >> To: <[email protected]> >> Subject: Re: [BOWEN] is this email list active >> >> > yes >> > >> > Alana >> > >> > ----- Original Message ----- >> > From: "Henrik Rasmussen" <[email protected]> >> > To: <[email protected]> >> > Sent: Thursday, August 26, 2010 11:03 PM >> > Subject: [BOWEN] is this email list active >> > >> > >> >> Are other Bowen researchers active here? >> >> >> >> >> >> _____________ >> >> Rik Rasmussen >> >> >> >> ------------------------------- >> >> To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to >> >> [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the >> quotes >> >> in the subject and the body of the message >> >> >> >> >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > ------------------------------- >> > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to >> > [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the >> quotes >> > in the subject and the body of the message >> >> >> >> ------------------------------- >> To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to >> [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes >> in the subject and the body of the message >> > >

I am active... well, I'm at a brick wall and only search from time to time thinking some information might become available. I have a Stephen Bowen from 1850 census living in Atlanta, DeKalb County, GA indicating he was born in SC in 1805. Married to a Temperance Kelly. Next to him in the same census is Hiram Bowen born in SC in 1798. Both men are carpenters. I am assuming they are brothers. So I am stuck at this point and can't find ancestors for these two men.

My grandfather William S. Bowen was born in NY in 1818. I have always heard that the S. stands for Smith. I have no idea where it came from. I have never been able to find his parents after years of searching. He came to Wisconsin around 1840. He purchased land in Waupaca Co., Wisconsin and also Waushara co. Wisconsin in 1859. He married Orra Carter in Sheboygan Co. and my grandfather Farmer E. Bowen was born in Poysippi, Wisconsin in 1866. They came west in 1873 and he is buried in Columbia Co. Washington.
