Hi Dick, Thank you for letting me know that you are not researching the MOWRY line in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut and/or Vermont. Thanks to Cousin Chuck R. I now have the information I need below: from Descendants of Nath. Mowry of RI. By Will. A. Mowry. Providence, 1878. (343p.) pages 120, 121, and 122: 75. JAMES MOWRY, son of John, born July 26, 1783; married in Pomfret, Conn., Sept. 27, 1804, LYDIA WEBSTER. 229. Lucius Potter, b. Oct. 12, 1805, in Guilford, Vt. 230. James W., b. April 20, 1808, in Guilford, Vt. 231. William Pitt, b. May 5, 1809, in Guilford, Vt. 232. Lydia, b. June 23, 1811, in Guilford, Vt.,; died Oct. 14, 1844. 233. Nelson, b. Nov. 19, 1813, in Guilford, Vt. 234. Ann, b. Aug. 24, 1820, in Leyden, Mass. 235. George b. April 22, 1825, in Leyden, Mass.; died young. James Mowry was the youngest son of John Mowry, who died of apoplexy, when James was sixteen years of age. <excerpt> About the time he was of age, he was married to Lydia Webster, and took up his residence in the southern part of Guilford, Vt. Here he bought a house, built a tannery and shoemaker's shop, and worked at his trade for ten or fifteen years. <excerpt> From about 1818 he was a farmer, residing first in Leyden, Mass., and afterwards in Guilford, Vt. <excerpt> He died at the home of his son-in-law, Horace W. Linde, and interred in the public ground, in Guilford, Vt., where a stone is erected to his memory. [There is a fac-simile of his handwriting 'from your old father James Mowry'.] Hope another MOWRY researcher reads his message and contacts me.
