Ira is my gggg-grandfather and I am looking for any information that will help me find related families. Ira was the father of Martha Evelyn "Evie" Bowers b:30 Jan 1868/d: 2 May 1956 who married George Martin Fowler b:20 Feb 1868/d:12 Dec 1956.

Ira Augustus Bowers, b 1838, married Margaret Elizabeth Roach, b 15 May 1849, d 26 Feb 1925 in Sand Mountain, Al. They had 7 children, Allico, Eve M, Carly, Henry Tom, William Lee, Boe, & Job. Ira was son of Edy Bowers 1810-1854 & Jane Glover b 1812, died in Arkansas. Ira was 3rd of 9 children. Edy is Buried in teh Glover family cemetery in Hart Co, Do you have info on other children of Ira Augustus

Ira Agustus Bowers and Margaret Elizabeth settled around Hart County/Franklin County GA. is this part of the same line that you are referencing? Other than Evie, I don't have any other info on children of Ira, I do have info further down the line as far as grandkids, etc...

I have a lot of info on the Job Bowers genealogy. Although I am descended from the second Job, brother of Edy, I do have some info on the Edy Bowers line. I also know someone here in Canon, Ga who is a descendent of that line and does genealogy. On your line, I only have that Eve married Martin Fowler, but I have heard of Martin Fowler all my life. I see where Henry Tom Bowers, brother of Eve, had a daughter Elizabeth, who also married a Fowler, Pete Fowler. Elizabeth was born 1906. Are you coming down the line from Ira, or going up, farther back?

Who do you know in Canon from that line, I am descended from George Martin and Evie Bowers, to William J. Fowler, to Frank S. Fowler, to Frank N. Fowler, to me, Stephen T. Fowler. Derrick Gable is a cousin of mine if that is who you know in Canon. He has done some work on the line as well and descended from William J. Fowler to Lettie Ann Fowler Gable, to H.L. "Tinker" Gable to Derrick Gable.

If you will e-mail me at gdavenpo@bellsouth.net, I will give you names. I do not feel I have the right to post other people's names without permission.
