Hi Folks! I am searching for roots and origins of William BOWEN, born about 1790 in TN we believe. He was married to Maria WILHITE. They had a daughter Sarah Malinda BOWEN, born 1813 who married John E. HESTER of Franklin County, Al. I have lots of info on the HESTERs, would like to concentrate on the BOWEN and WILHITE lines. Somebody mentioned that my William BOWEN may be related to early governors of TN and VA. I have no other dates of locations to offer than what I have listed above. If anybody can enlighten me further on William BOWEN or Maria WILHITE, please let me know. Take care, Robert -- \\\|/// \\ ~ ~ // ( @ @ ) ------- oOOo-(_)-oOOo--------------- Robert L.
