Hello J. Underwood
I can help you with your research on the Dowell's.Your James Terry Dowell was the son of John Martin and Nancy Terry Dowell.John was b.1803 and d.1858.Nancy was b. 1808 & d. 1876.They were married in 1827.They had at least 8 children namely:Leonidas, Henry, Lelia, Fannie, William, Mary, James and Campbell.Fannie was married to Frank Norman Potter. Fannie's mother was Mary Elizabeth Camp.
John Martin Dowell was the son of John and Sarah Hickman Dowell. His wife, Nancy Terry was the daughter of James and Mary Gooch Terry.
John Dowell who married Sarah Hickman may have been the son of George Dowell (yet, to be proven)
I would like to know your lineage to the Dowell's.I will gladly share Dowell information.I have a book written on the Terry Line.Also, a database with over 11,000 names in it.
You can contact me on [email protected] a great day.
James E. Dowell
