BOWEN-BOGGS I am descended from Luticia BOWEN b. 1807 Greenbrier, VA & Hamilton BOGGS b. ca 1800 Greenbrier, VA who were 1st cousins. Luticia was the dau of Anthony BOWEN, Jr & Mary "Polly" MANN and Hamilton was the son of an Andrew Elliott BOGGS & Hannah BOWEN. Anthony, Jr & Hannah were bro/sister....children of Anthony, Sr & Alice HAMILTON. (To further confuse the tree, another Andrew Elliott Boggs married Hannah's sister Suzannah Bowen.) Some of these families went to Ohio and later MO, IL, NE. My BOGGS/BOWEN line ended up in Nebraska where my grandfather, August Valentine Boggs, was born in 1873. The big question has always been---where did the name "Valentine" come from? Was it a BOWEN name? Was it a BOGGS name? Merri
