Surnames: BOWERS GALLATIN SHIRTS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HZB.2ACI/910.1.1.1.2 Message Board Post: Could someone please look in the cemetary records for Jacob BOWERS b. abt. 1815 & Susannah (Susan A.) BOWERS nee GALLATIN, b. abt. 1822. They were married in Medina in 1837. Their last of 7 children was born in 1850. Jacob was remarried to Hannah SHIRTS in Wayne Co., OH in 1860 and moved to Michigan in early 1860's. This indicates Susannah died betweet 1850 & 1860. Jacob's last of 4 children with Hannah was born in 1868, so we presume he died between 1868 & 1873 when Hanna remarried. No death record found. It may be possible he was buried in Ohio? There is some indication that they may have been Mennonite. Thank you for any assistance, T. Bowers
