His son, Edward L. Howes was my grandfather. You must be related to Frances Brown, his sister. I have found several links on ancestry to Walter and yes his father was Silas. I have been trying to find where he was lost at sea but have had no luck as of yet. Was there something specific you were looking for with Walter.
