A Virtual Cemetery created by Bob and Nan at Digital Magic Photography

Bowens Prairie Cemetery

This cemetery is just off I-151. In 1836 Hugh Bowen, a lead miner, staked out a 40 acre land claim and built a log cabin. Bowen is recorded as the first white settler for Jones County. Bowens Prairie as the "miners" called it encompassed 76 acres in Jones, Dubuque and Delaware Counties.

Bob and Nan at Digital Magic Photography has not added any memorials to this virtual cemetery.
