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
