James H. Fowler Born 1842 and Died 1892. Burial in Hillcrest Cemetery, East Point, Georgia. He and his infant son are the oldest marked burials in the cemetery. These burials pre date the official establishment of the cemetery in 1893. I am the cemeteries historian and am seeking info on this person. I will later post all Folwers in this lot as well as others in an attempt to provide more connections and a possable answer. The first burial in the cemetery was a Mrs. Hudson. She lived on what is now the cemeteries south circle section. She was buried on her land apparently and the cemetery sprung up from this one burial. I am wondering if this Folwer was related to Mrs. Hudson (no other name or info) based on the fact that the cemetery was established at a later date than his buirial. Could have been the burial of a relative or maybe "Mrs. Hudson was a Fowler by maiden name. Right now we have an historical tour and genealogical assistance day coming up on Nov. 20, 2004 and I am hopiong to find out more about him. (tour info: http://www.geocities.com/memories_in_stone/hillcrest.html ) I did a search based on his birth date of the Civil war Soilders and Sailors system, I had a few returns on the name and cannot confirm that this particular Fowler served in the Civil war for the CSA. Though the info I provide is lacking, I am hoping that a researcher will recognize this person on the dates or burial place alone.
My James A. Fowler was born in 1855 in Tennessee and died in Oklahoma in the 1930s.I think this must be a different family .
