His son Russell C is my great grandfather. I have been watching the list for sometime and this is the first connection I have seen. If there is anyone out there who wants to exchange the info on this family please feel free to email me privately. I also have a picture of Henry and his wife Elizabeth if anyone is interested. Also Colleen, I think you are doing a wonderful job on the list and sites. This is one of the most active lists I belong to and I think our home and cottage has to be one of the best out there. Keep up the good work, you are appreciated! Joy Payne DEJO90@aol.com ==== BOWERS Mailing List ==== Please do not send messages with attachments, HTML, MIME, or any other enhanced text to the list.

My Johann Georg Bauer was born 28 Nov 1755 in Kleinbottwar, Wurttemburg, and died 30 May 1828 same place. His wife was Susanna C. Weiss born 1 Aug 1757 but I have no DOD for her. Johann Georg's parents were Johann Jakob Bauer and Angelica Majer. All the information I have on any of these folks comes from the IGI records at LDS family history library. I don't see how your John Bauer fits with any of the folks in my computer, but then Stephen Gottlieb Bauer apparently lost touch with his siblings after he emigrated. Jan T

Sorry, no Jacob Bauers in the US. I do have a Jacob Bauer born July 1674 in Wurttemburg who had a son Johann Jakob born 20 May 1716 died 18 Dec 1788, all in Kleinbottwar, Neckar, Wurttemburg. And a Jakob Bauer born 1839, s/o Ulrich Johann Bauer b 1801, also presumably from Kleinbottwar. Also Jakob Friederick Bauer, born 1808, s/o Johann David Bauer; note says "had daughters", implying no sons to carry on name. Jakob Friederick Bauer born 1850, s/o Gottlieb Friederick and Anna Maria Summer Bauer. My Bauer line came from Kleinbottwar AND Hoheneck, Wurttemburg, in 1838. Stephen Gottlieb and Maria Glock Bauer had six sons, no daughters. The first son (Jakob Fredrick b 12 Dec 1836) died young in Germany. Karl Gottlieb, the next son, was born in Germany but grew up in America and was known as Charles; he died in the Civil War at the Battle of Shiloh. His enlistment (without telling his folks) was particularly upsetting to Stephen & Maria because they were Dunkards and thus pacifists. Anyway, Charles didn't live long enough to marry and have kids. The next son was John L. Bowers born 22 March 1840 in what was then Huntingdon Co. PA (family settled at Aughwick Mills). My great-grandfather, David Bower, was the next son, and he was born 15 April 1842, also in PA. Only John L. & David lived long enough to marry and have children. The two remaining sons, Benjamin (b 1844) and Samuel (b 1848) died in May 1849 of cholera while the family was moving from the Dunkard settlement at Aughwill Mills, PA, to another Dunkard settlement in Stephenson County, IL. My great-grandfather's journals tell of crossing the mountains in PA on some sort of contraption that carried them on tracks. Then they took a boat(s?) down the Ohio River to the Mississippi. When the boat stopped at Galena, IL, for supplies during a cholera epidemic that the two littlest boys became ill. At that point Stephen contracted with a Dunkard he ran into in Galena to take the family overland on up to northern Illinois and get them out of the plagued city. Stephen (b 1799) did have at least one other brother from Kleinbottwar who came to America "and lost track of". We'd like to find that branch. David's journals say "Two older brothers, John being the oldest, emigrated (and lost track of, as mail facilities were poor and very slow by foot them days.)" Stephen Gottlieb Bauer's brothers and sisters were (daughter) b 1786 Johann Sebastian b 1787 Johann Georg Jr b 1789 Johanna Christina b 1792 Georg Frederick 1 b 1794 Goerg Frederick 2, b 1796 (Stephen Gottlieb fits in here in 1799) Karl Stephan b 1801. We guess that Johann Georg Jr was probably the older brother called John in David's journals. But Johann Sebastian was the oldest, so who knows? We just guessed that he would have inherited anything the family had to inherit, which probably wasn't much. Anyway, the other brother who started out to America with "John" was Karl. David's notes about what his parents had told him doesn't exactly square with the dates we have on these brothers: "Two oldest sons (one being Karl) emigrated..." Karl started and got as far as France, "got sick and died and buried and the brothers furnished money, that was in 1838." Since Stephen & Maria Glock Bauer are also supposed to have emigrated in 1838, I guess we don't know who left first. I know I've never been able to find the name of the ship that Stephen and Maria came on, so perhaps David got the year wrong.?? Stephen Gottlieb Bauer's parents are Johann Georg Bauer and Susanna C. Weiss. We've never yet found any Bauer lines we hook up with, but I'm always hoping. Jan T

>From another list I am on.There are MANY Bower(all variant names here) Gloria I can't remember how I found this site, but it is a good one if you have ancestors from the Sandusky County, Ohio area. The Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center has an on-line index of obituaries from that area of OH. Volunteers make copies and they only charge $2.50 per obit. I mailed my check on Friday and had my copies the next Saturday. You don't get service like that from the gov't! Here is the link to the obit search page: http://www.rbhayes.org/index/

Fran, Thanks for posting the address http://www.interment.net This is a great site. Your posting showed the subject line for an Ohio county, but after reading your note, I decided to look up the states I'm working in, one being MS. There were Bower from OH in the Civil War buried at Vicksburg, MS. So, people, you might want to enter your surname and search the United States and check everything for a clue.

During a period of more than thirty-six years Henry Bowers has been one of the leading members of the Tuscarawas County bar, and at present is the senior member of the well known and formidable legal combination of Bowers & Bowers, with offices at New Philadelphia. Mr. Bowers has applied his entire career to the demands of his profession, having let no outside interest interfere with his advancement therein, and today is accounted one of the thoroughly informed, reliable and able members of the bar, esteemed alike by his clientele and his fellow practitioners. Mr. Bowers was born on a farm in Tuscarawas County, March 12, 1858, a son of Samuel and Martha (Dillon) Bowers. The name Bowers is of German origin, and was originally spelled Bauer. The great-grandfather of Henry Bowers was Jacob Bowers, who accompanied his son, Joseph Bowers, the grandfather of Henry, from Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, to Wayne County, Ohio, at an early date in the history of that county. The mother of Henry Bowers was born in Trumbull County County, a daughter of Aaron Dillon, a native of Scotland, who had come to America with his father and lived for a time in New Jersey, whence he came, a married man, to Ohio and settled in Trumbull County, thence moving to Tuscarawas County. Aaron Dillon was an officer in the American Revolutionary war, and was a millwright by trade, but lived on a farm in Tuscarawas County, where his death occurred, burial being made at Dundee. He was a member of the Christian Church. He was a staunch whig in politics, and his sons became republicans. They moved to Kansas, where they became prominent citizens. One son, A.I. Dillon, was an officer in the Union Army during the Civil war, and met a soldier's death on the bloody battlefield of Cedar Creek. Samuel Bowers, the father of Henry Bowers, was born in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, and was six years of age when taken by his parents to Wayne County, Ohio, later moving to Tuscarawas County, where he met and married Martha Dillon, and they settled down to housekeeping on a farm. They became the parents of five sons and two daughters. In 1878, with all their children save Henry, they moved to Kansas, settling in Doniphan County, where a year later the mother died, the father surviving her another year. They were members of the Christian Church, in the faith of which the mother had been reared, although the father had been reared a Mennonite, his father having been a preacher of that denomination. Henry Bowers was reared on a farm in Tuscarawas County, Ohio, and receive his education in the public schools and at the Ohio Northern University at Ada. He followed the family to Kansas, where he taught school for one year, but returned to Ohio and resumed his teaching activities, being an educator all told for a period of six years. Mr. Bowers then began the study of law in the office of J.T. O'Donald, an eminent lawyer at New Philadelphia, and was admitted to the bar in 1888, since which time he has been engaged in practice at New Philadelphia. He has built up a large and representative clientele, his practice carrying him into all the courts, and of late years has had as his associate one of his sons, Russell C., under the firm style of Bowers & Bowers, with offices in the Alexander Building. In politics Mr. Bowers is a staunch republican, and takes a good citizen's interest in matters of political importance and moment. In religious faith he is a Lutheran, and his fraternal affiliation is with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, in which he is greatly popular. In 1878 mr. Bowers and Miss Elizabeth Bair were united in marriage. Mrs. Bowers was born in Tuscarawas County, a daughter of Jacob and Mary (Sliffe) Bair, the Bair's being of French origin and the Sliffe's of German. Five children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Bowers: Roy S., a minister of the Lutheran faith; Charles R., likewise a Lutheran minister; Jessie, the wife of Rev. Russell B.
