Hardin
& Bowen & The Billings family connection
The
Mandan indian tribe, also know as the "White Indians" is conjectured
to have mixed with and therefore were descendants of prince Madog (Madoc)
Owain of Wales who may be assumed an ancestor of the Madogs of Llanfydnach
Wales.Prince Madog ap Owain Gwynedd was a younger son of Owain Gwynedd,
King of North Wales, and Queen Brenda, daughter of the Lord of Camo, it
is likely that he was born at Dolwyddelan castle in the twelfth century.
Prince Madoc of Wales and his people may have discovered America in 1170
or some 322 years before Christopher Columbus would arrive .

This
History of Bowen-Green families, came to me through Mrs. Osborn (Jomisty@aol.com) of Michigan, who has
been doing Bowen family research since approx.1990.
These sketches o' the allied Bowen-Green families, commencing with George
W. Bowen and Weaver Green and incidentally mentioning their realatives,
as pioneers, and makers and defenders of this great country of which we
are all so justly proud, many of them having taken an honorable part,some
having made the supreme sacrifice that this nation might endure forever,and
their posterity enjoy freedom and liberty to the end of time.
