It's always rewarding, and especially encouraging, to receive recognition for one's efforts. My special thanks go to each for their awards and kind thoughts.
The Bower Family Homestead's first twenty awards are listed on a continuance page of this section. I felt it would be too much on some of our visitor's older machines to continue to list our awards on just one page.

"I've just finished exploring your Bower Family Homestead. What fun going from room to room of "grandma's house". Your hard work in researching your family and highly imaginative way of setting up your web site make your site not only fact filled but fun. In recognition of your accomplishments I would like to present you with the Brainerd-Brainard Genealogy Award of Genealogical Excellence. This award can not be applied for and is only given to sites that I feel have gone "above and beyond" the ordinary personal genealogy page in thought, design and information. Congratulations and keep up the good work." Robbin Brainerd [Fri, 26 Nov 1999]
