Bowers.com ...for Bowers around the world...

I am looking for any info about the ancestors of Timothy Bowers of County Down, Ireland, who immigrated to the US in 1790 and settled by 1795 in Tyrone Township,Fayette County, Pennsylvania. Timothy was a weaver and married to Margaret ?? and had a least two sons, William and Robert. William, my ancestor, moved to Brown County, Ohio, in 1815 upon the death of Timothy. William named his children John, Martha, Mary, Timothy, Jane, William W., James Harvey, George Wallace, Elizabeth and James Calvin. In Griffiths Valuation of Ireland there were Bowers in Annahilt.

Greetings. Like so many others posting to this forum I'm searching for information about the Bowers family. The research I've conducted to date confirms that my earliest American ancestors entered the country through Jamestown/James City, Virginia in the mid 1600's. Many settled in present day Caroline County/Greater Richmond, Virginia.

I just returned from a trip to Georgia where I visited both Canon and Bowersville. I did not have a lot of time to spend but I did manage to make it to Oak View Cemetery which contains Bowers Memorial Park. There are many, many Bowers people within this cemetery. I managed photographs of those who I know my own kin but also snapped photos of other sites that I am just now getting off of my camera. I will try to post them here later. I absolutely recommend this cemetery for anyone with Bowers roots in Canon, GA and the surrounding counties of Elbert and Hart.

Hi! Looking for information on a William and/or Lucinda(Cush) Bowers. She was born in PA. about 1854 and supposedly died in 1935 in Ohio. Would like to know where she is buried. William is buried in Madison Twp.,Scioto County, Ohio. Any information will help.

I have no knowledge of my extended family tree, and was wondering if any Bowers out there could help? Growing up my father (George C. Bowers) told my brother and I our heritage is "Heinz 57" so we dont even know our ethnic backgrounds. His father is Russel C. Bowers who passed only 6 months after my father passed, so getting information is slim to none. Russel and Patricia Bowers had 6 children Russel Jr, Christine, George, Chery, Karen, and Kimberly. Any information may be helpful, and thank you in advance!

I posted in 2006 looking for information on a Michael Bowers who may have adopted my grandfather, Earl Elwood Bowers in Michigan. I also posted prior to that looking for any information I could find on Earl Elwood Bowers. There have been no responses so I am posting again! Earl Elwood Bowers, dob 08/19/1914 or 1916 and died 05/22/1992. He was a Corporal in the US Army Air Corp WW II. He is buried in the Sashabaw Cemetary in Clarkston, Michigan. He was living in Pontiac, MI when he died. Earl was married for a short time to Erma Guilliat and fathered three children: Elwood, Ronald, and Carol.

I know John and Charlotte and their children emigrated to New Zealand in 1904, and i believe some of his siblings may have already emigrated there.

I'm looking for any informationregarding Herbert and Helen Bowers (neé Anderson)
who lived in Globe Arizona in 1946.

Not sure if this is the proper venue to request information about family line.
My father was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in 1906.
No record seems available of that birth.
Later his family moved to Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada.
I do not know for certain the name my grand mother prior to marriage.
I believe it to have been Saul.
John Bowers and (possibly Violet ?) Saul had two children Jack Garnet Bowers, and Violet Bowers.
Family separated around 1914...Mother and daughter migrated to Port Credit, Ontario, Canada.

I am looking for Bowers' from the Panhandle area of Texas, specifically Wheeler, Texas. I heard stories all of my life about the ranches in that area that my grandfather talked about working on all of his young life in the early part of the 1900's before joining the CCC. His name was Bedford Forrest Bowers. I don't know his parents names.
Ring any bells for anyone? I am mostly looking to locate the ranches.
Thanks

Hi Bowers community, I really hope someone would be able to assist me. I am trying to trace my roots so to speak and have hit a bit of a wall in that the patriachs are no longer with us. I am trying to trace the origins of Matthew Attwood Bowers who arrived in Cape Town on a British Naval vessel (from delivering supplies to St. Helena Island). He had a son - Daniel Attwood Bowers - my grandfather, who first married Evelyn Ross and later Gwendoline Pond (my gran). Somewhere along the line a Henry Bowers features, however I am not too sure where he fits in.

I am trying to locate Richard Bowers, who I haven't seen in may years. The last time I had any contact, he was in the Canadian Navy and in Halifax, Novia Scotia, Canada. I would really like to find him. Any help would be appreciated.

My Grandfather was George T. Bowers, his father was William and his mother was Anna, looking for Bowers' in Tn and Va, or any information on relatives. His sisters and brothers were, Christina Bowers Garland, Denver Bowers, Jim Bowers, Anis Bowers Minton, Rose Bowers Corbaly, Sophia Bowers Mullins,

Does anyone have information about any of these people?
