Matilda Bowman married William Tincher
Matilda Bowman was the sister of my great great grandfather Absalom Bowman. Absalom was the son of Rev. Thomas Bowman who was the son of Cornelius Bowman (b abt 1740). Has anyone heard any stories about Absalom who migrated from KY to MO about the time of the Civil War? He and a young son named Francis were killed while they lived near Seligman or Cassville MO during the Civil War.
I am looking for any pictures of Matilda or her siblings or parents.I have pictures of of several of Absalom's children and his wife Eliza Maria Hunt Bowman.
My work provides evidence for the proposition that Cornelius (b abt 1740) was the grandson of Cornelius Jorisee Bouwman, the son of Joris Jacobsen Bouwman, and Anntje Staats. Joris Jacobszen Bouwman was married to Tryntje Claesen, the daughter of Claes Corneliussen Van Schouwen.
It is believed that Cornelius Bowman (b abt 1740) married Susannah Pointer (Poynter?) or Painter about 1764 at the Cooks Creek Presbyterian Church near Harrisonburg VA. Cornelius migrated from VA to Abbotts Creek in NC to near Lenoir NC in the 1770's to Watauga(now TN) about 1782, then to KY by about 1795. My branch of the family which comes from Cornelius's son Rev. Thomas Bowman. Rev. Thomas's Bowman's son Absalom, my gg grandfather, moved from KY to AR or MO about the time of the Civil War. My great grandfather James Levi (or Lee) married in Denton County TX and then later moved to near Stillwater OK.
