Milton Bowman

parents: Richard Michael Bowman and Mahala Sulser

Note: We are not pursuing information for this line. We are presenting this line only becasue we believe Pleasant Bowman (Milton's grandfather) has some connection to William H Bowman - a primary person in our research. We are looking for proof of a link between the two men (and Pleasant's brother Septima Bowman).
