Sandra, THANK YOU!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!THANK YOU!!!!! I have been searching for this family forever. Of course I was asking about an Amanda Meadows. You have her listed as Manda. Birthday is the same So I know we have the correct family. This is my husbands grandmother... In the 1850 Census of Mercer County that I have shows the last name as Bowling. I will have more information to search with when I go to WVa this summer. Thanks again. Also, I think I have seen you post on the Hedrick lists. Am I correct? Hedrick was my mothers maiden name. My grandfather was from Brown Co. Indiana.
