I think George W. Bowen may have been a part of the small Mormon group in the Moravia area about 1840, before some of them went west to go to Nauvoo, Illinois, and then further west to Utah. George stayed in Moravia with his relatives and some of the other members who stayed behind. I will be working on a list of the Moravia Branch, which began with about 40 members when it was organized. - Loren Fay.
