According to family history they had other children and lived in Elizabethton Tenn. at the time of the Civil War. Son, James, fought for the North and his father and brothers fought for the South. I don't have names nor do I know how many brothers. After the Civil War, the son, James didn't go home. He was a blacksmith owning his shop in Northern Ky., I don't know if he even communicated with his family, he was very closed mouthed. If any of these people are in your family it would be a great find for me! > > Joan Williams ==== BOWERS Mailing List ==== To post messages to the Bowers discussion list, send them to BOWERS-L@rootsweb.com ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
