Hi Tim, Hezekiah Stowell and wife Hepzibah Persis Rice are direct ancestors of mine. They apparently died in the Afton/Bainbridge area somewhere near 1800, but you are correct in that they had some descendants were apparently involved with the Mormons. I do think my direct line through Persis likely remained Presbyterian or Congregationalists. Below please see the reference from my database on WorldConnect. All my notes and sources from my primary database are there and represent the research I did a few years back. I am always happy to make contact with others connected to this family and to find additional primary source material. Some of the DAR records on this family are confused as some of the daughters. Persis and Polly have been mixed up at times. I did find a deed in Chenango Co. that listed all of Hezekiah's children with the names of their spouses -- a wonderful help in straightening out who went with who. http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=mscheffler&id=I1775 Margaret Scheffler ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Stowell" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, July 01, 2007 1:19 AM Subject: [STOWELL] Stowells in Afton/Bainbridge NY > Would someone on the list please let me know the names of some of the > Stowells who lived in Afton / Bainbridge area of New York? > > I believe some of these folks went west with Brigham Young. > > I'm trying to track down someone from that clan but can't figure out the > connection since I don't know the names of any of the folks from there. > > Tim Stowell > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
