5) Lureniza Ann Bowman:
   born and died 1846 Martin Co, IN;
   Per William H Bowman's deposition regarding Julia's pension claim - dated 17 April 1888:  

William listed all children born to Julia and him, with dates that were re-created. He said they were taken from a copy of the dates in the Bible - put at the time of birth. He stated that the record had been destroyed and the dates were near as he could get, and believed them to be correct. The sources of re-creation were not listed, but some of the birth and death dates conflict with dates we have taken from tombstones, etc.  With this disparity, it is unknown which source would be more accurate. With the discovery of these papers, this is the first time we have had knowledge of Lureniza Ann's existence.
