From Tennessee's Pioneer Baptist Preachers
"Joel Bowling, a son of Larkin H. Bowling, was born in Anderson County, Tenn., May 2, 1817. His grandfather, Joseph Bowling, was a native of Virginia. Joel was the son of a farmer, and was brought up to farm life. He was converted in North Carolina, in this twenty-eighth year, but uniting with Brasstown Church, Georgia, this church licensed him to preach, soon after his conversion.
August 8, 1838, he married to Adaline M. Carroll, of North Carolina, to which union there were born eight children."

Do you have the decendants of this Joel Bowling?
