Johnathan Mowery was born in 1837/38 in Tennessee. It is uncertain where in TN he was born but it might possibly be Knox County or Anderson County. He was growing up in both areas. Johnathan was born to Moses and Nancy Mowry (this is how it was spelled on all records found). Moses and Nancy had other children also. These being Harvey, Martha, Henry, Sarah, Patsy A., and George A.

Johnathan served in the civil war in the 34th TN Infantry as a private.

On June 13, 1864 Johnathan married Nancy Hamblin in Whitley County, Ky. She was the daughter of Reverend Daniel Hamblin and Barbara Monhollen (who died of Scarlet Fever in 1860). They lived in Anderson County Tennessee for quite a while where it is believed that all of their children were born. Johnathan and Nancy had 8 children: Armelda who married Jeff Young, Dillie who married Daniel Hamblin (a cousin of hers), Manila who married Calvin "Coly" Anderson, Burnette "Nettie" who married Speed Monhollen (a cousin of hers), Mary who married Henry Archer, John Henry who married Averly Bolton, George W., and James M.

Johnathan migrated to Whitley County where his bride was originally from to live in the late 1800's. All of his children were married there.
