About Henry McIlhaney Bowen, I
Henry Bowen was a Sergeant in the 13th Regiment which later became part of the 9th Regiment Continental Line of Virginia under command of Colonels William Russell and John Gibson. The 9th was stationed from Dec. 1777 to June 1778 at Valley Forge, PA under the Command of General George Washington. Per DAR information, Henry mustered out of the regular Army in Feb. 1780.
Some researchers and/or family members have him as being present at King's Mountain, NC in Oct. of 1780. There was a Henry Bowen in an American militia unit which fought at King's Mountain, but I am not sure if this was the same Henry Bowen who mustered out of the Army in early 1780.
I am a 5th great-granddaughter of Henry Bowen and his wife Ann (Cunningham). Henry's daughter Margaret married John M. McElhaney. I descend through their son John M. McLehaney, Jr., soldier War of 1812, b. TN, about 1797, m. Elizabeth Womack in MS 1822, d. Simpson Co., MS 1771. After the Simpson Co., MS courthouse burned in 1771, John's will was reconstituted/revived before the Probate Court in 1771. Found in the MS State Archives/Historical Society.
