HEZEKIAH G. BOWDISH married 1st. Perces Hayham Bowdish and they had baby Horace E. Bowdish. Mother Perces died and at some point Horace left to discover the new territory of the Dakota's.

After Perces had passed, Hezekiah remarried to Priscilla Bates Bowdish and had Serena Abigail Bowdish who married Perry Delbert Gross, a man from Minnesota. They lived in Minnesota territory for 20 years or more and later divorced.

There has been some discussion that Hezekiah and Perces were buried on their own plot of land rather than the cemetery. The other proposition is that where Hezekiah was buried became the cemetery section where they were buried in.

Hezekiah G.and Pricilla Bowdish were both alive after 1883, but not found in the 1900 census.
