Go to: http://rootsweb.com/~minewayg/jdgowell.html Another source on him is also at Rootsweb...called Mack's Shack. Go to: http://world connect.rootsweb.com/ cgi-bin/igm You could also try Ancestry.com by listing John D. Gowell and it should lead you there. Please get back to me if you cannot locate the above info. It's lenghty or I would paraphase it..
