I am researching an individual by the name of Andrew Jackson Bowen Sr. He was born about 1819 somewhere in Georgia. Location at this point is unknown. He has turned up in the Eastern Alabama area as well as Carroll County and Haralson County Georgia. He married a Mary Lee Hays in June of 1853 in Carroll County Georgia. He had two children with him before this marriage, which may lead me to believe that he may have been married once before Mary. The Children that were living with him and Mary at the 1860 Census of Carroll County were as follows: James Bowen born about 1846 in Alabama; Lucinda Bowen born about 1848 in Alabama also; Christian C. Bowen born about 1854 in Georgia; John Lunsford Bowen born Sept. 27, 1855 in Georgia, died June 29, 1917 in Anniston, Alabama; Nancy Bowen born about 1859; and Andrew Jackson Bowen Jr. born March 30, 1860 in Carroll County, Georgia, died July 17, 1945 in Cedartown, Georgia. Andrew Jackson Bowen Sr. enlisted in the 35th Regiment, Company "A" of the Haralson County Guards of the Northern Virginia Army C.S.A. on August 15, 1861. He died in battle on July 12, 1865 in Richmond, Virginia. He is buried at the Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond, Virginia. I do not have any additional information other than what I have listed here. If anyone has any additional information please advise of such information. Thank you, Cory Bowen.
