My Dad and his family came from Nebraska... Our name was spelled Mowry but one of Uncle Sam's employees mistakenly printed Mowery on Dad's social security card and we have spelled our name Mowery from this time on... At least that is what my Dad said! I have often wondered if there wasn't some other reason why our last name was changed... :-) Hope all is well with you.
