The Gallery
We are fortunate to have cousins among us who own pictures and paintings of Bower family treasures. They are generously sharing these acquisitions with us. The Bower Family Homestead is very honored to house and display these pieces for the benefit of all Bower(s)/Bauer(s) family members.
If you have a portrait or painting you'd like to share, please contact me at
ladyaudris@earthlink.net.NOTE
: To those of you who have slower operating modems -- these pages are considered graphically heavy since the pictures are so large. Please expect a long wait for the pages to load.
