Obituary
Unidentified Newsclipping - 1891
BOWMAN.--Jacob W. Bowman was born in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, February 10, 1811, and died at his residence, in Greenville, Michigan, March 6, 1891. For fifty-three years Brother Bowman lived in the vicinity of his native town, endearing himself to its good people by his industry, honesty, and good morals. In 1834 he married Miss Ann Bowers, a lady of much piety and stability. With her he lived a truly happy and prosperous life. In 1843 he was thoroughly converted. His strong manhood was at once consecrated to the Redeemer's kingdom. His home always had a "prophet's chamber." After his conversion he was received among the Wesleyan Methodists by "Blind Father Long." In 1864 he moved with his family to Oakfield, Michigan, where he united with the Methodist Episcopal church. In 1880 he moved to Greenville. Here the writer was his pastor four years. Brother Bowman was a regular church attendant, an inspiring hearer, a faithful witness for the Master, a consistent Christian, a liberal and cheerful giver--for forty-eight years in blessed fellowship with his Saviour. As husband and father, he was a model. The wife, two sons, and three daughters remain. His long and painful illness was endured "as seeing Him who is invisible." He passed away full of years and good works.
