John Andrew Bowles' Stone

This stone is just south
of J.A. Bowles' stone,
at the foot of what looks

Is this where his wife is buried?

Benjamin & Maria
Martin
are my gr-gr-grandparents
Maud Bowles, their daughter.
Roy B. Bowles, their grandson.
Benjamin & Maria came from
DeWitt County, IL and were
related to Lane & Bennett
families there. Are these
Lane's & Bennett's
related to the DeWitt
County Lane's & Bennett's?
Benny & Maria's grandaughter
Ora Belle Martin married
Willie Tracy.
Are these Tracy's related?
