Do you have a copy of their originial marriage bond ? The compiled index of VA census 1820 has listed in Frederick Co. VA--Martin Bowen, no Morton Bowen listed. The only Bourn living in Frederick Co. VA for 1820 was a William. I only a few notes dealing with the Bowen family, they married into my Sowers family. Good luck with your research.

This was done by 5 Jan 1801. His widow Elizabeth left a will dated 5 Sep 1801, probated 1 Dec 1800 named as her daughter Elizabeth Greenlee (and her son John Greenlee either "natural son" or married a cousin ?) & her son David Greenlee. I see no mention of the surname Bourn in the will books 1-9 covering the years of 1743-1816. The name Bowen does appear. You might check all the land deeds for that name around the time of his marriage. I have compiled those will book in book form for sale to the public.

If so, you can then request, for a small fee, copies of their applications, which usually contain considerable genealogy.

For the marriage books, the records are thin at best before 1790, so it isn't unusual that there wouldn't be anything, as he likely married before 1760??
