Joan was the daughter of Charles Christopher Snowden & Minerva Frances Portwood Snowden. She married Joseph Bowman on January 18, 1869. The couple were the parents of Charles Christopher Bowman. It is unclear if this marriage ended by death or by divorce.

She married Francis Marion Riley, the son of George & Elizabeth Tracy Riley, c. 1873. The couple were the parents of Mary and Annie Belle Riley. Their youngest child, Annie, was born in the first week of December. A few weeks later, Joan succumbed to fever and was laid to laid to rest in the family burying ground.

Note: Little is known about Joan Snowden. The information contained in her bio was gleaned from census, marriage and birth records. I feel that her burial was at the Portwood Cemetery, since her child's stone is there.
