Surnames: Bowen Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/wJB.2ACE/921.1.1.2.1.2 Message Board Post: I was very interested in your posting. I am a Bowen from the Bowling Green, MO area. My father was Norman Bowen, his father was Daniel McCarty Bowen and his father was Burkett Bowen, They came from Virginia by way of Kentucky. Do you think they were related? I don't have very much information about Burkett's family, don't know brothers, sisters, etc. Also, Daniel married Emma Kunkel, whose family is from Mexico, MO and some of that family is buried in Elmwood Cemetery. I have been there and taken pictures of Kunkel but did not know about any Bowens. If you can't get anyone to take pictures, I will probably be up in that area this summer, let me know where in the cemetery and I'll look and take a picture for you. Mary
