1860 Gordon Co. Ga. census Obituary,Cassville Democrat, May 2,1908,P.2.Col.5. Judge E.M. Bowman dead A well spent life was closed and the book of accounts,as far as this life is concerned closed with it, and Judge Elijah M.Bowmans spirit went to him,who gave it from his home in McDonald township. tuesday morning, April 24th, 1908, of a cancer, aged 64 yrs, surrounded by a loving wife, sons and daughters. Judge Bowman,we believe, was born in Tenn. and came to Barry Co. many years ago and located in Capps Creek twsp. where he resided until he moved to his late home. In 1902, he was elected Co. Judge from the Western dist. on the Dem. ticket, and served his people well. He leaves a wife, four sons and two daughters to mourn his death. They are Joseph,of Miller,Mo.; John Albert, and Claiborn and Miss Lela and Mrs. Ollie Ash of McDonald Twsp. Judge Bowman was a member of the Fairview Baptist Church,8 miles out on the Springfield rd. jThe remains were laid to rest Tues. evening in the Maddy Cem. west of Purdy. Another good citizen is gone to his reward---a family is broken and his neighbors will miss him. The family has our sympathies. 1880 census Capps Creek twsp,Garry Co. pg.23 lists; Elijah,Joannah, John,Joseph,Albert and Fanny. 1900 census,Capps Creek twsp,Barry Co.
