Memorable Moments & Stories

Other: Jabez Hitchcock The Bower Family in Iowa. Information contributed by George Kuntz. Much of this geneology must be attributed to the efforts of Levi Linden Bower (1908 - 1999) of Sigourney, Iowa. In the 1960's he hand-typed more than 50 pages of Bower family genealogy that chronicled the arrival of the Bower, Luer, Klett, Axthelm and other founders of Keokuk County and surrounding areas. Through the research of John Werner and Mary Popovich, additional records were found in the LDS microfilms of Ostramondra (Germany) Parish Records.
