Bowen (M) (January 9, 1835 - November 9, 1903), #180189 Pedigree Relationship=6th cousin 4 times removed of David Kipp Conover Jr.. Relationship=5th great-grandson of Wolphert Gerretse Van Kouwenhoven. William A. Bowen was born on January 9, 1835 at Egg Harbor Twp., Atlantic County, New Jersey. William A. Bowen was the son of Jesse Bowen and Lavinia Adams. William A. Bowen married Asenath Collins, daughter of Daniel Lake Collins and Mary Ann Ingersoll, on September 10, 1859. William A. Bowen married Huldah C. Martin; six children. William A. Bowen died on November 9, 1903 at Atlantic City, Atlantic County, New Jersey, at age 68. William and his family lived in a house on the west side of Shore Road (Main Street) in Pleasantville between Adams and Woodland Avenues. The property had been given to William's first wife, Ascenath, by her parents Daniel and Mary Ann (Ingersoll) Collins, and was part of the property Mary Ann Collins had inherited from her father, Isaac Ingersoll. Because Ascenath owned the property during their marriage, William acquired a life estate in the property under the legal doctrine of curtsy, and William continued living in the house with his second wife and family. After William's death, his children from his first marriage - who had inherited the house from their mother Ascenath - sold the house. "Wm A Bowen Passes Away William A. Bowen, 69 years of age, one of the old and well known citizens of Pleasantville, died Tuesday morning at the Atlantic City hospital, from a complication of diseases induced by the accident he suffered on the A.C.R.R. some years ago.
