Please, I've been at this for 35 years. I have checked all published sources for Augusta County, but I haven't been to the courthouse in person. My John F.[not J.] Towell was in Rowan County NC in 1820 with a wife [name not found], son and daughter. He married Mary "Polly" Bowers in 1823, his first wife having presumably died. All my information from 1823 to present is solid. I have been looking for a better trail further back for 25 years.

My research here commences with a Frederick TOWILLS at Ilminster in Somerset, England about 1717. One branch of this family is known to have gone to Bristol in about 1850 and another to Taunton about the same time. My great grandfather came to Australia in 1853. I hope I have not upset anyone listing my name variation. Regards Wal Towells Newcastle Australia
