Hi Bowen Listers, Due to my online research of BOWENs in VA (Culpeper County and other nearby counties, such as Madison, Fauquier, Rappahannock, etc.), I was contacted by a teacher at Virginia Tech who has written a book 9and is writing another) concerning the letters of families affected by the taking of their property to accommodate Shenandoah National park in the 1930s. Her name is Katrina Powell and she is seeking the permission of a descendant to include a letter written by Ed Bowen (wife named Polly) of Moorman's River, VA. Please contact me offlist and I will give you further info. Kathleen Bowen Simons Falls Church, Virginia IMAGE - a No. VA Christian church whose mission is simple: Worship. Community.
