I owe some serious apologizes here! It has been years since I worked on my MOORE family that these Bowers are included in. I'm so sorry, I had not gotten reminded about responses. I think that the Rosalie may be wife of the son, Charles below but am not certain?
I am posting this family group in the hopes that it may bring out some of the descendants in response? Hopefully!!!

From checking backward other census (1920, 1910 & 1900), the two earliestenumerated only one other dau, Ella b.Dec 1896. At this time, I don't know whether she made it to adulthood or not but maybe she isn't shown in 1920 census because she is already married and has her own home.
At some point in time, contact was made with a ggd-i-l who was literally packing for travel to Turkey---we shared some information---the most important to me was that both Mary E. Moore and her husband Frederick Bowers had moved across the state of AR to live in a place named Lone Pine, AR (cannot come up with the county right now but in the Ft. Smith/VanBuren area) Fred died in 1962 and Mary later in 1964 but both were brought back to Corning for burial.
The notation I found was for Corning Cemetery in Corning, Clay Co., AR included both, BOWERS, Frederick 1874-1962 & Bowers, Mary E. 1880-1964. I believe they married in 1896 in Clay Co., AR but I'm not where I have access to my other notes however, I think I found a marriage record con-firming this date.
I do appreciate so much everyone's input to this little bit of research. If I can ever get to Corning,AR to visit I will look for Rosalie and Charles Bowers. Thanks for the headsup though so many years later I found the information you both sent Vaughn and Bill. I thank you both!
