• Notes

  Susannah Bricker,"the third daughter of old John and Annie Bricker, was born August 12, 1807. She was married to Wendel Bowman who was born January 21st, 1800, and died July 7th, 1876. She died February 12th, 1890. To them were born ten children". Eby, Ezra E. (1895). A biographical history of Waterloo township and other townships of the county: being a history of the early settlers and their descendants, mostly all of Pennsylvania Dutch origin: as also much other unpublished historical information chiefly of a local character. Berlin [Kitchener, Ont.]: [s.n.]. _______________ The Late Mrs. Wendell Bowman There died at the residence of Mr. John N. Sipes, Blair, on the evening of the 12th inst., Mrs. Bowman, relict of the late Wendell Bowman, for many years one of the leading public men of Waterloo County. Mrs. Bowman was indeed a "mother of Israel," and was noted for her many Christian virtues. The deceased was a daughter of Mr. John Bricker, who came in from Pennsylvania early in the present century and took up land in the neighborhood of Blair. Mrs. Bowman was born on the farm at present owned by Mr. Henry McNally, and spent the whole of her long and honored life in the same neighborhood. Her husband, the late Wendell Bowman, took an active part in public affairs and was one of the leading men in the settlement. He was for a number of years reeve of the township and warden of the county, and his name was on more than one occasion mentioned in connection with parliamentary honors. - The deceased was the mother of a large family, only two of whom survive her - Elijah Bowman, of Grand Rapids, Mich., and Mrs. John Unger, of Waterloo. Mr. Joseph Stauffer, of Galt, is a grandson. - The funeral of deceased took place on Saturday afternoon last to Blair cemetery, and was largely attended. The services were conducted by Revs. D. Sherrick and Jacob Bowman, of Berlin, the latter of whom preached a very feeling discourse in the church. In the demise of Mrs. Bowman, passes away one of the last of those who participated in the struggles of the pioneers who settled in this county in the opening years of the century.
