Photo 64-BEA-19

Comments

I believe this is my families farm, a centenial farm that has been in the Bowser family for over 100 years. It is on the 40 acres at the north east corner of Bradley and Kalamo Roads. The large building just by the barn was the school that my great grandfather, E. Van Bowser, went to. None of the outbuildings are standing, and the front porch of the house has been sided over. Still owned by the family, but the house is a rental.

This farm is still in the Barnett family. My Great Grandfather built the house about 1868. My Grandfather, E. Van Bowser lived there next. Now the house is owned by my daughter and her husband. She would be a great, great, great Granddaughter.
