    3. I'm trying to find more information on the possible John BOWEN marriage to Mary FREEMAN, b. about 1804 in Brutus, Cayuga County, New York. I have absolutely no information on John BOWEN. Mary is the daughter of Silas, b. 10 Jan 1775 and Sarah FRENCH FREEMAN, b. 25 Mary 1778. Mary's name could possibly be Polly. Sincerely, Mike Peterson

    3. Hi Mike, Robert Freeman's three volume genealogy of the Freeman Families of New England is due to be published momentarily. I ordered my copy back in June. So if you contact me in two months, I should be able to do a look-up for you. My branch of the Freeman family left Connecticut and settled in Dutchess County, before moving to Washington and then Erie County, NY. I don't know how receptive Bob is to queries these days. However in the mean time, I shall forward your question to him. I also understand that there is a published genealogy of the Freeman family that settled in New Jersey.

    3. Hi Leslie, would you be related to Lee Potter? Thanks for your note but Bob and I have been in contact on this issue and he, Richard Freeman, and I are puzzled over this.

    3. Mike, I checked the notes that Bob Freeman had sent me on my branch of the Freeman family and found that my 5th great-grandfather, James Freeman had a son named Silas. At this time, I do not have any data to indicate whether my uncle Silas is the grandfather of your ancestor, Mary Freeman Bowen, or not. The following is the data that I have on Silas Freeman, son of 1716-James Freeman. 13. James Freeman. Born on 31 March 1716 in Preston, Conn.? James died in Easton, Washington Co., NY in January 1801; he was 83. On 16 August 1739 when James was 22, he married Phebe Kinne, in Preston, Conn. Born in 1721 in Preston, Conn. Phebe died in Easton, Washington Co., NY in 1797; she was 76. They had the following children: 16 i. Ezra (1740-) 17 ii. Amos (1744-) 18 iii. Phebe (1747-) 19 iv. Gideon (1749-1809) 20 v. Silas (1751-) 21 vi. Elijah (1754-1836) 22 vii. Elisha (1756-) 23 viii. Stephen (1759-1837) Your query is about John Bowen, so I assume that you know about Silas Freeman's ancestors. Is there a connection between my Silas Freeman and yours?
