Hello Bowles Researchers: I don't think I've subscribed to the list in the past, but I might have, as I have numerous collateral relationships in Dade County with my Birds, Choates, Sextons, Fortners, etc. At the moment I'm trying to track down death information on a Benjamin Priddy. He was born around 1825 in Virginia and lived in the neighborhood of Hudspeths, Bowles, Stovalls in Dade, and other descendants of old Va families. He died sometime between 1864 (fathered a five year old in 1870 census) and 1870 (or deserted his family) in Dade County, Missouri Kings Point/Pennsboro area. At the following URL at the Dade County website, there is a piece on the Descendants of John Bowles by a Judy Bowles. http://www.rootsweb.com/~modade/j_bowles.htm In the document she mentions a Bowles-Priddy cemetery. I was wondering if one of you might have a reading of those buried in the cemetery. Thank you very much, Janet Baugh Hunter
