Capt. Jonathan Jones Bowen
Still looking for the grave of Capt. Bowen.He was born Oct. 18, 1829 in Jackson Co, Ga.He died at the Battle of Kennesaw Mountain July 14, 1864.He was married to Martha Jane Simmons Oct. 22, 1850in Cambell or Hall/Banks Co, Ga.
Hisparents were Thomas Jones Bowen & Nancy Yarbrough.
The family story goes his body was brought from the battlefield, in a wagon,by hiswife, 2 children, & old ex-slave.He was buried in the front yard of hishouse.
Somepeople think he might be buried in cemetery, in unmarked grave, with his sister-in-law Thirza Bowen.
I want to get a military tombstone for him.
