The following information comes from "The Vawter Family in American" by Grace Vawter Bicknell, published in 1905, reprinted in 1969:
William M. West, son of Achilles and Sarah Glover West, was born in Jefferson County, Indiana, April 10, 1855; married, first, March 4, 1985, to Eva Grinstead, who was born in Jennings County, Indiana, November 26, 1854, and died April 1, 1886.
Children:
a. Elma A. West, born March 1876; died May 1881
b. Charles W. West, born March 30, 1878; married June 19, 1901, to Lala Kuhn, who was born January 20, 1880. Charles W. West is a street-car motorman, living at Indianapolis, Indiana.
c. Dessie West, born July 11, 1880; married November, 1897, to Corwin Bowling, a farmer, living near Veedersburg, Indiana.
d. Sylvia A. West, born March 1, 1886. Since the death of her mother she has made her home with her aunt, Mrs. J. Silas West, who lives near Madison, Indiana.
Sarah Glover West was the daughter of James and Elizabeth Vawter Glover. Sarah was born October 29, 1818. married June 7, 1838, in Jefferson County, Indiana, to Achilles West, who was born in Jefferson County, Indiana, February 29, 1816. They moved to Jennings County, Indiana in 1860, where Sarah West died January 25, 1891, and Achilles West died September 10, 1892.
Jennings County marriage book 8 shows William M. West and Eva G. Grinstead were married 4 March 1875.
Please note that you have Mount Vernon as the birthplace of Dessie. That should be North Vernon.
I hope some of this helps.
