My great grandfather was Samuel M. Bower. He was born in Texas (possibly Titus County) between 1854 and 1856. His parents were Marshal and Mary H. Bower and they came to Texas from Alabama. I found them in Jackson County Alabama on the 1850 census which shows Marshal was born in Tennessee. Marshal and Mary have a son, William D. Bower, listed here as well. I believe Marshal’s father may have been William Bower since he is listed just above Marshal’s family on this same census. It shows William and Jane Bower with their family. I believe Jane was Jane Moon Maples because two children listed have the Maples name. William and Jane both show to have been born in Tennessee. I’ve found land records for William and his son, Marion, from Jackson County Alabama. I found a death record for Marion F Bowers from Paint Rock in Jackson Co. This shows his father was Billie Bowers. I've found Marshal and his family in Titus County Texas during 1870 and in Tarrant County Texas by 1880. Does anyone know this family or their history? I would appreciate any information.
