    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Schoch Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zJB.2ACE/1984 Message Board Post: I am looking for a list of burials at the Bowen Cemetery in Buchanan Co., Missouri. The information I have on the cemetery is that the cemetery is located on a slight hillside north of Highway 6, east of St. Joseph’s, MO, and only a couple of miles west of the Buchanan County eastern border line. There is a crop field between the highway and the cemetery with a gravel lane from the highway to the cemetery. My great-great-great grandfather John M. Schoch is buried here along with a few of his children and grandchildren. John M. was born in Berks County, PA, traveled first to OH in time for the 1850 census, was in Indiana in 1856 when his wife Catherine died, and next went to Buchanan Co., Missouri for the 1860 census. John M. died in 1870 and was buried in the Bowen Cemetery. I suspect there may be other family members at the Bowen that I'm not aware of. Betty, Berks County, PA
