Zavala County
BOWEN and ROSS families. William R. BOWEN and his wife, Mary, came from Bates Co, MO to Williamson Co, TX about 1869, but had moved to Zavala Co by 1880. William died in Batesville in 1934 aged in his 90's. His daughter, Martha Helen BOWEN, married Jacob Samuel ROSS about 1884. Jake ROSS and his brother, John, who was also in Batesville, had come from Alabama. Their grandfather, James ROSS, died in Commanche Co, TX in 1868.
The BOWENs had several other children who I have been unable to trace, including George T. who was in Reeves Co, TX in 1900, Ida, Indiana, William, Levi, Eli, and Robert Lee. The ROSS children lived in Batesville, Kerrville, and Oklahoma.
