He went back to Tarrant County in 1845 and lived and died in the house he built. The first home was a log house, but a few years later lumber was hauled from Dallas and he built a nice comfortable home which still stand today.
Her mother, Margaret Burford Perry, came from Alabama with her family in 1852 and settled in Arlington. Mrs. Bowermon maternal grandmother, Eliza Johnson Buford, was a sister to Co. M.T.

A son and a daughter were born to the Bowermons; the daughter died in infancy.

She was president of Lakeview S.M.S. for years, and took part in church and community work until she was forced to retire from active service. She was a wonderful person. Although she's gone, the memory of Granny Bowermon will live on. - Submitted by Mrs. H.W. Spear.
