The database of Philadelphia deaths has the death records for William Stowman and Eliza Stoneman: http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html?datestamp=1195390820093#c=fs%3A1320976&p=collectionDetailshttp://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html?datestamp=1195390820093#c=fs%3A1320976&p=collectionDetails
He was born Dec 25, 1834 and died Oct 22, 1908. His father was William. She died June 15, 1899 at age 63. Both are buried in Cedar Hill Cemetery. The address for Eliza is the same as the address for the family in the 1900 census.
If you're interested in finding more you could contact the cemetery to see who else might be buried with William and Eliza. The Historical Society of Pennsylvania has an excellent selection of Philadelphia records.
Why the family appears as Stoneman in some records and Stowman is a mystery. It not a problem of misreading the handwriting.
