This book has no cover, and no index, and no author. I bought it on Ebay; it
just has the insides, but it is full of Indiana biographies. I am not
researching this family, just thought I would share. I do not know anymore
about these families or these surnames. NOTE: I don’t know if there is any
additional mention of this family in the book, it has no index. I do not
want to sell this book. I am typing the biographies from it.>Typed by Lora
Radiches:
Surnames in this biography are: Bowman, Pray, Evers, Rhoades, Liebring,
Overland, Knight, Herr, Lee,
LLOYD E. BOWMAN. Since 1910 Lloyd E. Bowman has been connected with the
automobile business at Kendallville, and this continuous service gives him
the distinction of being the dean of automobile dealers in Northern Indiana.
During that period he has distributed several makes of cars, but after
considerable experience has come to the conclusion that the Chrysler is the
best one on the market, and he is now handling it exclusively. Lloyd
E.Bowman was born two miles northwest of Kendallville, Indiana, October 7,
1880, a son of John and Mary (Pray) Bowman, he born in Ohio, in 1855, and
she born in Sunbury, Ohio, in 1848. John Bowman came to Noble County,
Indiana,with his parents, George and Mary Bowman, both of whom died in
Lagrange County in 1912. George Bowman was married twice, his second wife
being Rhoda Pray Evers, and she, too, died in Lagrange County. Mrs. Mary
(Pray) Bowman,
mother of Mr. Bowman of this review, died June 5, 1886, and John Bowman is
also deceased. Following the death of his mother Lloyd E. Bowman went to
make his home with his uncle and aunt, Daniel and Sarah (Rhoades) Pray, he a
native of Sunbury, Ohio, born November 20, 1834, and she was born in
Delaware County, Ohio. The name Pray for at least half a century has been
prominently identified with numerous business affairs. Daniel Pray was a son
of John William Pray, the latter of whom was born on the Susquehanna River
near Horseshoe Bend, Pennsylvania, from which locality he moved to Sunbury,
Ohio, and still later to Kendallville, Indiana, and in the latter town he
spent the remainder of his life, being engaged in farming. He and his wife
had six children, Daniel, Charles, David, Rhoda, Mary and Eunice. Daniel
Pray in early life learned the shoemaking trade, but not being satisfied by
what he
could turn out through his individual skill he established a business at
Middletown, Ohio, and prospered until he had to meet the competition of
machinery in making shoes. At one time he gave employment to seven men in
his shop. From Ohio he moved to Milford Township, Lagrange County, and
bought eighty-five acres of land, and after a few years he established a
brick yard at Kendallville, and divided his time between farming and looking
after his brick yard, but continued to maintain his home on the farm. After
a few years he transferred his brick making to his farm, and his last years
were devoted to brick making. He donated the brick to build the Church of
God that still stands near his old farm. At one time he also conducted a
brick yard at Angola, Indiana. For a number of years he also conducted a
general store on his farm. In 1889 he moved to Turkey Creek, Indiana, but in
1892 went to a farm in Springfield Township that he had obtained for his
farm in Milford Township, and there he remained until May, 1896, when he
went to Helmer and took charge of a grain elevator, which he conducted for
eight years, and at the same time conducted a general store at Helmer, in
partnership with his son, Edward Pray, under the firm name of D. Pray & Son.
In 1905 he retired from business, having prospered in it. He had, in March,
1896, traded his farm in Springfield Township for the elevator and store at
Helmer. It was owing to the death of his wife, in 1912, that Mr. Pray sold
his interests at Helmer, including his residence, and continued to live with
his children and niece, Mrs. Louis Liebring. His death occurred at the home
of his son Edward Pray, Easter Sunday, 1927. He and his wife had six
children: Carrie B., Emma
A., William, Edward E, Alice F., (who died in childhood) and Grace V, Lloyd
E. Bowman received his education in the public schools of Milford and
Lagrange counties, and worked on a farm. By the time he was twelve years old
he could do a mans work, and he also worked in his uncles store, applying in
the latter position the knowledge he had gained in figures. In school he was
an apt pupil, at nine years old spelling down the entire school, an event
still remembered by those who were present on that occasion. On the
foundation laid by his few years at school Mr. Bowman has built up a fine
store of knowledge through reading, and is today well versed in literature,
and his taste for books is shared by his family. In 1899 Mr. Bowman went to
Janesville, Wisconsin, and entered a school of telegraphy, in which he
completed the regular course, and took his agency work at Helmer. On October
23, 1900, he took a position as agent for the Wabash Railroad at Stroh,
Lagrange County, Indiana, being the first agent of the station, and he held
it until February, 1910, when he resigned to enter the automobile business.
However, he has already, in 1908, become interested in the automobile
business when he signed an agency contract. In 1909 he asked for a leave of
absence, and during his two weeks of vacation, sold five cars. On April
9,1910, he moved to Kendallville, and here he has been continuously engaged
in the automobile business ever since. From October, 1911, to March, 1922,
he also was a dealer and distributor for Overland and Willys Knight cars for
four counties in Northeastern Indiana. When he gave up the agency for these
cars he took five counties in the same part of the state for the Maxwell;
and in 1924 he took charge of the Maxwell and Chrysler agency at Fort Wayne,
Indiana, which covered nine counties, and conducted it until January
14,1928, when he sold out, and since then has concentrated his efforts on
the
Chrysler, in his Kendallville store, which as already stated, he had
maintained all this time. A very active and consistant member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, since December, 1921, he has made the record of
not having missed but one Sundays attendance at Sunday School during that
period, and his reason for not attending that one time was illness. He is
now superintendent of the Sunday School, and head usher and a member of the
official board of the church. In politics he is an active Republican. A high
Mason, he has been advanced through all the bodies of the Scottish Rite to
and including the thirty-second degree, and he also belongs to Mizpah
Temple,A. A. 0. N. M. S., the latter of Fort Wayne, Indiana. On March 9,
1901, Mr.Bowman was married to Miss Bertha Herr, of Stroh, Indiana. They had
the following children born to them: Evelyn, who was born May 15, 1903, was
graduated from the Kendallville High School, after which she attended the
Ward-Belmont School for Girls, Nashville, Tennessee. She then entered
Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois, and was graduated there from in
1926, since which time she has been music supervisor of several schools of
Noble County. The Methodist Episcopal Church has in her an active member,
and she belongs to Tn Kappa sorority, of Kendallville. Lloyd E Junior, who
was born October 31, 1915, is freshman in the Kendallville High School. When
he was twelve years old he made application to be a Lone Scout and in 1928 a
Scout Troop was organized at Kendallville, and he for his untiring efforts
in Scout work, is character, and his living within the law of the order, was
chosen as representative from Kendallville to attend the Third Quadrennial
Jamboree at Birkenhead, England, in 1929, the citizens of Kendallville
financing the trip. He has been chosen as Scout patrol leader of his troop
at Kendallville, in spite of his youth, he being only fourteen years old.
August 29, 1918, Mr. Bowman married his second wife, formerly Mrs. Augustine
Lee, of Fort Wayne, Indiana, a widow with two children: Charles, who
graduated from the Kendallville High School in 1929, is now a student of
Purdue University; and Dorothy, who is a junior in the Kendallville High
School. Mr. Bowman is not only one of the most successful automobile dealers
of Kendallville, operating under the name of the Chrysler Sales
Corporation,but the oldest, in point of continual operation, in Northern
Indiana, and he is held in very high regard personally, as well as in
business circles.

Does anybody have a Prudence Chrisman born in VA, died in Macon Co., MO? Born 31 July 1790, death date 7 Jan 1884 from her tombstone near Atlanta, MO. She married a John Moore who may have also been born in VA, and they seemed to have moved to Indiana, then in Illinois by 1833 and he died in 1834-35 (she was widow on the land patent written Oct 15, 1835) in what is now Woodford Co., IL. Was Tazewell or McLean at the time. Sure would like to find parents or a birth locale for her. Found hers and John's name on a death certificate for their daughter.

thank you...I was real curious abt him esp....all those *** were my own
thing of families I do research on or interested in.....
what do you have on Henry Chrisman?
Did he have a wife name Elizabeth
and did they live at Willow Shade Plantation
supposedly it was Elizabeth's father, but I dont know her last name.
this was in Virginia along the James River and might also been
called the Chrisman Plantation.
Henry and Eliz prob had at least 3 dau, 3 sons.
Henry supposedly also had bought some land near by fr a
Logan Bullitt for raising tobacco.
Also a George Carlisle apparently lived near by at Fluvanna
and had a large flouring mill.
Maybe none of this is familiar or not even true...I dont know.
Its taken fr a book written abt my 4x grandfather, Wm Smeathers/Smithers
by Dorothy Gentry in 1992 and she took most of the info fr a 15 part series
published in 1866 by Thomas McCreery in the Owensboro Monitor.
It was also pub in 1979, 80, 81 in a now defunct Ky mag called
Back Home in Ky. I do have the whole 15 part series and what Thomas wrote
jives much with what Gentry wrote...but I still have NO idea if its true as
no one gives any resources, esp McCreery except to mention his story is
based on an Interview bet a JP Anthony Thompson and my grandfather around
1810 on the Yellowbanks of Ohio where my grandfather did live then. How
McCreery got this interview is a BIG mystery.
McCreery was a Historian and Senator of Ky back then and Thompson was a real
person, I did find where he owned land in Nelso Co Ky and that is where he
was a JP.....thanks for any feedback....Nena
ps-my curousity on Henry is due to the fact...hes suppose to be my
grandfather Smeathers UNCLE....sister to Smeathers mother....but we dont
know, never found out for sure who Smeathers parents are..its a story been
handed down for abt 30yrs which we can not prove or find any documentation
for except oral stories. Prior reseachers who got this info never said WHERE
they got it. Its a BIG mystery!
