| Message: | My great-grandfather, George Bower, came from Germany in the 1850s, as George Bauer. We have his citizen certificate dated 1857. His son was Charles Bower, who lived in Nebraska and Montana, and married Rosa Beebe. My father was Paul Edgar Bower, who lived in Nebraska and Montana, and married Elizabeth Crutcher. We had cousins in New York named George Bower and Bertie Bower Schmidt. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Replying to: I looked at the site and noticed that the name BOWERS seems to be traced back to the british isles but I know my family originally came from germany with the name BAUER. I realize that our name was americanized during immigration. I just want to know if, when, and how the name spread from the british iles. And if there are any other people with the name who can trace there ancestry back to germany as well. |
