Jacob
Sowers & wife Mary (maiden unknown) had five children, one was Elizabeth
Sowers born c1750 married to John
Campbell (born in
Scotland). He died in
Frederick Co. VA on 1809.
Their son John Campbell's will probated 6 Apr 1819, mentioned his mother-in-law as being Nancy
CATLETT. He had married Dolitha
CATLETT in
Frederick Co. VA on 10 Mar 1803. It would appear they had no children.
In his will mentioned "my cousin Lucy
Stephenson", she was the wife of Wm. Stephenson. They were married in
Frederick Co. VA on 26 Feb 1816 and she was the daughter of Harry/Henry
CATLETT &
Miram Calmes.
The question is what surname:
CATLETT or
Calmes, did Lucy (
CATLETT)
Stephenson & John
Campbell share.
The main reason I want to sort all this out is, I am looking for the maiden name of Mary, wife of said Jacob
Sowers Sr. Was she a member of either
CATLETT or
Calmes families.
Thank you for your time.
