Recent DNA evidence verifies that Joseph Fowler was not a son of America and Mary Fowler as had been speculated. The only evidence that he might have been the son of America was that they were both in Arkansas and that at least 2 of America's children moved to Fannin County, Texas where Joseph had lived in 1850. However, Joseph moved to northeast Arkansas from Tennessee with several other families and America and his family lived in and around Hot Spring County which is in the southwestern part of Arkansas. -- Rebecca Wilson 10 Oct 2018
