Would you please e-mail me at abcfhis@hotmail.com. Mary was the daughter of John Bowen. We believe that Mary's mother was Sarah but o this we are not sure. There is another John Bowen and Sarah Bean. That is not our line. Do you have the Bethell side of the family? If not, I have a great deal on that side of the family.Do you still happen to live in the Ind. area? I have some copies of legal papers from the Franklin Co., Tn. court house basement that I copied while doing research there. Would like to send you copies so that you could give me your opinion on how they pertain to our Bowen family. Beth Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
