In Deed Book 1, p. 141 is the following: "William Henry and wife to John Bauman and Geo Lisor" "... William Henry and Abagail Henry his wife of the County of Stark in the State of Ohio for ... the sum of ... paid by John Bowman and George Lizer of Stark county and State of Ohio ... lots in the Town of Wooster numbered" (183-188), etc. George Lisor, my gg-gfather, originally came from somewhere in PA, and, by 1817, was living in Wayne Co. I have as yet been unable to determine where in PA he was from, so thought it might be helpful to learn John Bowman's place of origin, in the event that they both might have come from the same area in PA before going to Stark Co. Is there anyone out there with info on John Bowman? Also, after whom is Bowman St. in Wooster named? Thanks in advance for your assistance.
