I very sincerely thank the many who responded to my post re finding my Pat. GrMother's (Caroline O'KELLY) grave site in Vt. As suggested I have checked 'Find a Grave' site as well as town (Shelburne) & County (Chittenden) people. Have checked local RC churches in the area also. Have posted many times in past yrs also & have yet ti find it. Can anyone ref me to a State of Vt. Government office that *might* have such info ?? Again - I DO thank all for your attempt(s) to help me. Bev

Does anyone have a Bowers reletive who would have been about 40 years old in 1887? He would have been of the age to be in the Civil War and several Bowers are listed but only five lived until 1887 when this potrait was done. He is not a relative of mine, but thought some one might belong to him.
