    3. Dear Fellow Listers, I've been gone from the List for awhile and though I would post my Chester Co. family once again. Especially since I have found out more about the family. I'm looking for decendants of my g-g-g-g grandfather's siblings. Thomas Bowker b.1815 Yorkshire, Eng., d. 1893 Chester Co., Pa. He married Eliza Ellam who was born in Yorkshire abt. 1812, I have no death date for her. They immigrated from England about 1848. All of their children except the youngest, Joseph was born in England. Martha Ann b.1835, married David S. McCurdy 1856 and had 8 children. They moved to ILL. John b. 1837 and married Mary Priest. (My line) Sarah b. abt. 1839 married Jonathan R. Holland 1867 Mary b. 1843 Ellen b. 1847 Eliza b. 1845 married George R. Van Leer abt. 1875 Joseph b. 1849 and died age 20 in Chester Co. I've tracked this branch back to Yorkshire and have baptism records for 4 of the children and have them on the 1841 Census in Yorkshire and then next have them in Chester Co. where Thomas and Eliza died. I known they lived in East and West Whiteland Twp. and Willistown on census' and know That Thomas was a Mason. I am looking for family. I would like to find Mary, and Ellen and any descendants. Thanks, Karen
