General Notes: Wife - Sophia Bowser
On Saturday, May 27, 1922, her children and their descendants gathered at the home of Mrs. Emma T. Wolfe, near Mahoning, Pennsylvania, to celebrate her 95th birthday. These anniversaries brought her children to her side annually since 1889, and this one was the first of the thirty-three birthdays thus observed when all of her children were not present. Her oldest son, Eli, of Steubenville, Ohio, was not able to attend. Aunt Sophia, despite her ninety-five years, was as happy as a school girl. She sat with her family at the table as she had always done; and while the after dinner program progressed, she was in her arm chair and heard the songs, the prayer, and the complimentary and loving words spoken. She was at the time the oldest living Bowser, and retained all her faculties to a remarkable degree - memory, hearing, eyesight, and general good health and a genial happy spirit.
