Seeking information on parents/siblings of James Madison BOWLING, born 1810
in Kentucky and died on 03 Dec 1863 in Lexington, Kentucky. James Madison
BOWLING married on 28 Dec 1831 Elizabeth BUMGARDNER, daughter of Christian
BUMBARDNER (born in Augusta Co, Virginia) and Edith Elizabeth EDSALL. The
family resided ona farm near the Green River in Hart County, Kentucky. James
Madison BOWLING died while serving with the Union troops during the Civil War.
James Madison BOWLING and Elizabeth BUMGARDNER had the following children,
all of whom were born in Hart County, Kentucky:

Family traditions state that the father of James Madison BOWLING was Edward

family would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
