• McGowan family history compiled by Duane and Wilma McGowan (McGowan-3343), Stillwater, MN, USA, and handed down to Deborah (Garrett) Brooks. Their research started in the 1960s and concluded in 1982. Their compilation does not include specific source references; however, they describe their research process in the preface to the compilation: “… we have invested substantially in time, energy and costs in gathering information for this book. We have travelled, used the telephone extensively and have written many letters. We also used the services of the local branches of the Morman Library. Our investigative trips have taken us twice to Washington State, twice to the National Archives in Washington, D.C., three times to Chester County, Penn., twice to Alton, Illinois … and once each to Oshawa, Canada; Alton, Indiana and Henry County, Iowa.”
