[15068] John Bowen and his wife, Lily McIlhaney, were thought to have had twelve children...but 13 are listed in The Bowens of Virginia and Tennessee by Grady. Harman, in his Annals of Tazewell County also lists Rebecca, who was not mentioned in her father's will. For the time being, Rebecca is included in this family grouping, but further research will be necessary to determine if she really was part of this family.
Date of birth estimated. John was supposedly much older than his wife.
Will, dtd 13 Mar. 1760, was probated 19 May 1761. (Will Bk 3, pp 24-26).
