Steve: Has anyone done a complete transcription of this cemetery? Are there field stones with initials or dates? Are there any remains of an old house nearby? The James L. Bowen you've listed is the grandson of John and Elizabeth. James' father, also James, inherited the homestead when John and Elizabeth died. He signed an agreement with his parents in 1823 to take care of them until they died. In return he received the homestead. Since his son is buried in that cemetery, it is most likely that the older James is as well. And, it is also likely that John and Elizabeth also were buried there. Most family cemeteries were established within walking distance of the house. I am going to have to visit there, I guess. Perhaps within the next couple of weeks if the weather holds. 'Tis a long drive from Woodbridge, VA, but the possibilities make the trip worth undertaking. In addition to the above questions, can anyone provide specific directions to the cemetery?
