Hi Lori, I just noticed that you were asking about FOWLER in Valentine or Cherry County, NE. While I don't know about the Fowlers you mentioned I so remember that my folks the Thomas E. Powell's of the North Table in 1914-18 mentioned about a Henry Fowler who also lived at Harmony, which was about 7 miles north from Valentine in those years. I was born there at Harmony in 1916. However, my father died in the 1917 Flu epidemic and my family left Harmony and went back to Blair, NE. When I was visiting Valentine in the 70's I went to the Valentine Library and there was a Xerox copy of a book "Go In And Possess The Land" by Olive Bullis. On page 17 Henry is mentioned as starting up the Sunday School in the Harmony School. On page 20 "Henry Fowler and Hyley Cole located near the Dakota border in this - the Dry Creek -- community. Mrs. C. A. Broad, author of the song, "Valentine", is a daughter of Henry Fowler. Verna Broad, her son's wife and daughter of Aaron Salmon, a homesteader nearer Valentine, wrote the melody for the song." On page 30 "Alice Fowler Broad explained how some one had lightly asker her, one day, why she didn't write a song about Valentine. She had laughingly declared, 'Oh, I couldn't do that!' But the idea was not so easily dismissed, and a few days later, she sat down at her desk and wrote the words of her soon popular western song, "Valentine'. Her daughter-in-law, Verna Salmon Broad, set it to a merry, lilting tune, and it has been published in sheet music and recorded by Jess Summers and his 'Riders of the Sunset Trail'." There are the words to the song also in the book. On page 35 "Some of the first pupils in the new Harmony school-house with Mrs. Searby as teacher, were: Otis DeWitt Hahn and his sister, Mabel; Rene and Rose Fowler; Mary, Edna, Eliza and Lizzie Hobson." These are the only Fowlers that I see mentioned in the book. I hope this is of some use to you. Tom Powell
