Ann, I'm confused when you say you may be chasing the wrong John and Mary Gwin. Which one of these children you mention is your ancestor? Starting with yourself and going back, do you have a clear path back to John and Mary? And how did you hone in on them? Lots of us are researching John Gwin/Guinn/Gwinn(etc). Peggy Guinn Bowen
I am Ann Folsom Givens, My husband is George D Givens, George was born in Cleveland, Pawnee County Okla 2-22=1941, son of Thurman and Irene Henson Givens..Thurman was born in Cleveland , Pawnee county Jan 16-1917 to George Washington and Lily Belle Gwin Givens....Lily Belle Gwin Givens was born in Joplin Missouri in 1877 to Alexander and Harriett Givens Gwin...Alexander Gwin was born in MaCoupin County Illinois on Dec 29-1849 to John and Mary Gwin......I did not mean that Alexanders Parents weren't John and Mary Gwin, John just doesn't appear to be the same John who married Mary Boswell, and I just would love to know what Alexanders Mother's maiden name was if it wasn't Boswell.....Your married name is Bowen? could your husband be kin to Alexanders Grandchild whose last name was Bowden and was with them on Census in 1920-30 and listed as one of their heirs in Probate....Thank you so much for your interest.....Sincerely Ann Givens ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, May 08, 2005 6:50 PM Subject: Re: Ann Givens post Ann, I'm confused when you say you may be chasing the wrong John and Mary Gwin.
