The Rezin Bowie Family of Louisiana - Documents Supporting Corrections and Additions Concerning The Rezin Bowie Family of Louisiana and Suggestions For Further Research

by Virginia Lobdell Jennings



The author has spent over 35 years compiling material on this remarkable pioneer family, and she sorts out the facts and fiction that are known to exist today. After James "Jim" Bowie, the son of Rezin was killed at the Alamo in 1836 and became a Texas hero, many people with the Bowie name in their genealogy attempted to prove a relationship to him, and some even claimed descent inaccurately. This book is not about "Jim" Bowie. It is an attempt to correct the errors in the Rezin Bowie history, to include additional information with documentation, and further emphasize some of the area which future research should be directed.
Soft cover - 185 pages Price: $25.00 postpaid.
