"FRITCHEY - BOWERS
"A quiet, but very pretty wedding occurred Sunday when Miss Anna Bowers, of Berryville, and Alden Fritchey, of Lawrenceville, were united in marriage at the home of the bride's parents, Dr. and Mrs. Bowers, of Berryville, by Rev. J. C. Foutz. The bride is one of Berryville's most popular young ladies, and formerly a teacher in Shirley, Ill. Mr. Fritchey is an industrious young business man of Claremont, being connected with the Fritchey & Webster store, and now a telegraph operator at Lawrenceville, where they will make their future home. The many friends of the bride and groom join in wishing them a long and happy married life."6
Anna taught school before her marriage. After her marriage she and Alden owned and operated a general store in Claremont, Illinois. When they knew some one was in real need, Anna or Alden managed to "slip a little extra" into that person's order. They have retired now [written about 1978] and live at Claremont.7

Annie Laura Bowers was born in 1878.3 She was the daughter of George Washington Bowers and Louvina Rogers.2 Annie Laura Bowers died on 24 Feb 1878.3 She was buried at Centerville Cemetery, Lawrence County, Illinois. I have no family evidence to indicate that this burial might be the daughter of George Bowers, except for the name and the fact that she died as an infant. However, the Centerville Cemetery is in Allison Prairie, once the location of a Brethren Church used by the Bowers family. Mrs. Black has another, similar, entry on this page for Anna Lenora Bouner March 24 , 1878 Age 5 weeks.3

The baptismal record says she was born 20 Sep 1819, the daughter of "Johann Bauer and Johanna".1
She is named in her father's estate records as the wife of Frederick Casper. In Sept. 1866, they were living in Bedford County, Pennsylvania, according to those papers. She must have married him before 1840 since she does not appear to be in her father's family at that time. Also, the oldest son of Frederic, age 52, and Barbara Caspar, age 39, in the 1860 census of Middle Woodbury Township, Bedford County, Pennsylvania was then age 22. I have not found her family in 1850.2

Clara Lucinda Bowers was born on 14 Feb 1879 at Decker Township, Richland County, Illinois.2 She was the daughter of George Washington Bowers and Louvina Rogers.1 Clara Lucinda Bowers married Luther Benjamin Long on 28 Dec 1897.3,4 Clara Lucinda Bowers died on 20 Oct 1957 at Richland Memorial Hospital, Olney, Richland County, Illinois, at age 78.5 She was buried at Decker Cemetery, near Noble, Richland County, Illinois.6
The following notes were written by Doris Olds for our 1979 Bowers book.
" Besides the death of her husband, there was another tragic death in Clara's family. Her third son died when not quite three years old. He was with his father and was riding on a seed drill when the drill hit a stump. The child was thrown onto an oil can and the spout entered the eye socket and struck the brain. Also, Clara's older son Earl preceded her in death.
"In spite of all this, Clara always seemed cheerful. She was a little woman, never weighing more than 97 pounds, and always energetic. She did a lot of canning of fruits and vegetables for her family. She and her children gathered hickory nuts by the wagon load. These were sold to give her money for crochet thread and other fancy work materials. Her hands were never idle, for even as she listened to the radio, she was busy crocheting, tatting, etc.
"The Longs lived near the Little Wabash River where there was plenty of hunting and fishing, and they all grew up liking those activities. Ruth still fishes, and the boys all talk of fishing, boats, guns, and bird and 'coon dogs. Darrell has an ideal place for these things with it all practically at his back door.
"Even though Clara was very young when her father died, she kept in touch with the Bowers relatives. She and her children visited aunts and uncles, sometimes staying overnight, and she regularly attended the Bowers Reunion. It makes one wonder whether the original Bowers Reunions, which were chowders, may not be the background for the Long Chowders, which Clara started and her descendants continue to hold each year about Labor day. One is responsible for the meat purchase and the cost is shared. All bring vegetables and prepare them for the chowder, which is cooked in 50 gallon iron kettles. All of the Longs come for this big annual event if they possibly can."
Her obituary states:
"Mrs. Clara Long, 78, of the Mt. Gilead neighborhood, and widow of Luther Long, died on Sunday afternoon at the Richland Memorial Hospital.
"She is survived by the following children: Clyde Long, Mrs. Ruth Mason, Paul Long, Geoge Long, and Darrell Long, all of Noble, Henry Long of Sugar Grove, and Joe Long of Dundas. There are 27 grandchildrenand 15 great grandchildren. Oscar Taylor is a brother and Mrs. Nina Washington of Broadus, Montana, is a sister.
"Funeral services will be held on Wednesday at 1:30 pm.m at the Schaub Funeral Home, with Rev. Charles H. Fausnacht in charge. Interment will be in the Decker Cemetery. Friends may call at the funeral home."6
Her obituary states:
"Clara Bowers Long, daughter of George and Lavina Bowers, was born Feb. 14, 1879. Passed from this life to a fuller life, Oct. 20, 1957, at the Richland Memorial Hospital.
"Clara was a member of the Evangelical United Brethren Church.
"Luther B. Long and Clara Bowers were united in marriage Dec. 27, 1897. This union was blessed with 9 children.

The following notes were written by Doris Olds for our 1979 Bowers book.
" Besides the death of her husband, there was another tragic death in Clara's family. Her third son died when not quite three years old. He was with his father and was riding on a seed drill when the drill hit a stump. The child was thrown onto an oil can and the spout entered the eye socket and struck the brain. Also, Clara's older son Earl preceded her in death.
"In spite of all this, Clara always seemed cheerful. She was a little woman, never weighing more than 97 pounds, and always energetic. She did a lot of canning of fruits and vegetables for her family. She and her children gathered hickory nuts by the wagon load. These were sold to give her money for crochet thread and other fancy work materials. Her hands were never idle, for even as she listened to the radio, she was busy crocheting, tatting, etc.
"The Longs lived near the Little Wabash River where there was plenty of hunting and fishing, and they all grew up liking those activities. Ruth still fishes, and the boys all talk of fishing, boats, guns, and bird and 'coon dogs. Darrell has an ideal place for these things with it all practically at his back door.
"Even though Clara was very young when her father died, she kept in touch with the Bowers relatives. She and her children visited aunts and uncles, sometimes staying overnight, and she regularly attended the Bowers Reunion. It makes one wonder whether the original Bowers Reunions, which were chowders, may not be the background for the Long Chowders, which Clara started and her descendants continue to hold each year about Labor day. One is responsible for the meat purchase and the cost is shared. All bring vegetables and prepare them for the chowder, which is cooked in 50 gallon iron kettles. All of the Longs come for this big annual event if they possibly can."
Her obituary states:
"Mrs. Clara Long, 78, of the Mt. Gilead neighborhood, and widow of Luther Long, died on Sunday afternoon at the Richland Memorial Hospital.
"She is survived by the following children: Clyde Long, Mrs. Ruth Mason, Paul Long, Geoge Long, and Darrell Long, all of Noble, Henry Long of Sugar Grove, and Joe Long of Dundas. There are 27 grandchildrenand 15 great grandchildren. Oscar Taylor is a brother and Mrs. Nina Washington of Broadus, Montana, is a sister.
"Funeral services will be held on Wednesday at 1:30 pm.m at the Schaub Funeral Home, with Rev. Charles H. Fausnacht in charge. Interment will be in the Decker Cemetery. Friends may call at the funeral home."6
