General Notes: Husband - George Bowman

---

He was reared on his father's farm at a time when farmers' sons had to endure many hardships. He received his education in the subscription schools of that period and then engaged in farming. In 1841 he removed to Gilpin township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, where he purchased twenty-three acres of land, upon which he then resided. He also owned a valuable farm of one hundred and forty-two acres of good farming and grazing land, which was situated in Parks township.
He was an active worker in the Democratic party and served at least four terms as road supervisor of Gilpin township, and also filled the office of school director. He was a member of the Evangelical Lutheran church.
