Researchers are encouraged to review Series 2: Genealogy Files for more detailed genealogical information on the Bowman, Hollar, Lahman, and Wenger families. Published genealogies on these families are also available for additional context.","The Eldon Bowman Collection of Bowman Family Papers primarily documents the Eli Martin Bowman (1861-1950) and Amanda Hollar Bowman (1865-1936) line of the Bowmans of Rockingham County, Virginia. Eli Bowman was the great-great-grandson of George and Barbara Bowman who  immigrated to Pennsylvania from Germany in the late 1740s. The Bowmans moved to Rockingham County in the early 1770s and erected the \"Bowman House\" which is now part of the Frontier Culture Museum in Staunton. The descendants of Eli and Amanda Bowman documented in this collection include their son Luther Alexander Bowman (1884-1952) and his wife Otilla May Lahman (1891-1966), Luther and Otilla's son Millard Lahman Bowman (1914-1997) and his wife Oma Frances Wenger (1913-2002), and their nine children including Eldon Bowman (b. 1942) and Bernie Bowman (b. 1947). Many of the Bowmans were members of the Mennonite Church and were farmers by trade. Millard Bowman owned and operated a dairy and turkey farm with his family just outside of Harrisonburg. Eldon and Bernie Bowman as well as their siblings Jim, Daniel, and Miriam Haarer are all published authors. Their books include memoirs, genealogies, and family histories.

","There is also a breadth of material concerning records of the county courthouse and jail; marriages; liquor, attorney, minister, and professional licenses; surveys and plats; lunacy; court proceedings; elections and voting; and taxation. Record types are predominantly estates and deeds; bonds and oaths; and orders and accounts. A few are letters, petitions, and other miscellaneous types.  ","Boxes 1-18 contain envelopes with a wide variety of records. The collection was arranged chronologically, so the contents of an envelope are from the same year but differ topically. Most envelopes are labeled \"Regardings\" and contain a variety of materials. A few are labeled \"State Cases,\" or \"Misc. Papers\" and are primarily certificates and accounts concerning witnesses.  ","There are many detailed records of the settlements of various estates; names can be found in the card index. There is also a wealth of materials concerning land, property, deeds and taxation. Animal scalp certificates are records of bounties paid by the county for the scalps of various animals, primarily foxes. There are also documents of guardianships, primarily bonds, as well as oaths and bonds for various officials. There are several records of official licenses for attorneys and ministers, as well as lists of other professional licenses. Road records consist of records of road surveyors, planning and location of roads, as well as accounts and receipts for cost of building and labor. There are also records of bridges. Furthermore, there are a small number of records of various fraternal and benevolent orders.   ","A bulk of the remaining boxed materials has to do with accounts and receipts, primarily wages, orders, accounts for medical attention, repair and construction of the county courthouse and jail, receipts for court proceedings and jailing, costs of lunacy proceedings, and other various court expenses. Records about the care of the poor and paupers make up a substantial portion of the receipts, primarily for the expenses of funerary needs, medical attention, and general keeping.

","Highlights include: a license for a house of private entertainment (undated, box 1); a request for more jail guards to prevent mobs (undated, box 1); records of John Bowyer, a prominent early settler of the area (1841); two deeds concerning an enslaved girl named Sarah, aged 18, passed from the Casley's to the Bailey's and then to the Easley's (1859 and 1860); the sale of a pauper for $10 (1860); two Civil War records, an \"Opinion as to legality of removing records South during Rebellion\"(1861) and an account of tools seized by General Wise (1862); a bond for an apprenticeship between Maria Bailey and Charles Easley, a Black man (1870); records concerning small pox (1873); petition concerning Sewell Station, and Deep Water (1878, envelope 6); a patent for curing leaf tobacco (1879); land deeds for the Sewell (1879) and Falls (1890) school districts; two petitions from citizens of Collinsville and Glen Jean against licensing saloons (1896), and deeds for Methodist Episcopal and Baptist churches.  ","This collection also has 57 record books. Except for the books in box 19, none of the originals exist. Instead, every ledger except for the County Clerk's record of benevolent associations (box 19, item 2) is available on microfilm (FAY 4-8). Record books are primarily personal property books and delinquent and land tax ledgers. Also included are a court docket, a county census, lists of voters, two poll books, and four private account books. The poll books are for 1890, but they have a record of the  May 20th, 1872 poll book included. Private account books include G.P. Huddleston's accounts of wages for various types of work, prices of farm produce, groceries, boats, yard goods, liquor, etc. (item no. 52); a memo book of Railway repairs (item no. 53); and two account books for Gauley Tie and Lumber Company (items 54-55).
