Hi Debbie: My 5th great grandfather was James Bowling, wife Letitia Moore Gillaspie , they are of the Bowlings that were "blue". in other words, not related to Pocahantus or the famous Virginia Bowling Family. My Bowlings were from St. Maries, Maryland, and were early pioneers there...somewhere back there has maybe a connection...but this family's father was John Bowling , his mother was Susanna Lee Bowling, Maddox Cartwright...There was a marriage with one of the Bowling daughters, Archelus Mitchell, (I think) They were reasonable well off, had a plantation and I followed the relationahip of Samuel Hill and Rebecca Bowling, who moved to Tennessee and Kentucky , and their descendents to Missouri....I am also interested in the Giannini family, but I don't think there is a relationship...I will check thru my Hill family...busy with another line, at present....if there is a connection, let me know....sincerely Sue Snyder ----- Original Message ----- From: "Debbie Ullom" <Genealogy@ullomfamily.net> To: <vaamhers@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 28, 2009 5:23 PM Subject: [VAAMHERS] Roll Call: BOWLING, GIANNINI, HAYDON, ISON/ISOM, LYONS,MEEKS, MITCHELL, SHOMO >I have several lines of my family that were in Amherst county, VA.
