This history and genealogy charts the Bowser family in the United States; it was first published in 1922 following a large reunion and years of painstaking research.

An all-embracing account of a family whose roots go back to the 1700s, this genealogical history omits little detail in its efforts to chronicle the many and varied lives of the Bowsers. Hundreds of ordinary ancestors, plus a distinguished and highly successful few, all feature in this book. We even find appended a photograph of U. S. President Warren Harding, who corresponded with one Bowser. Some forty photos - mostly portraits of family members - are included.

The historical portion begins with an account of ancient sources; the first records of the Bowser name date to the Medieval era in Europe. We go on to learn how and when the first Bowsers emigrated from the Old Continent to America, and their initial appearances in census and other pertinent data in the fledgling colonies. The most prominent branches of the Bowser clan are traced to Pennsylvania and Philadelphia, with others demonstrated to have migrated westward as the USA grew.

In all, this is a well-composed genealogy useful both as a source for further researches and as an entertaining record of persons long departed.
