Mr. Bowman was born April 3, 1865, in Knox Township. Clearfield County, Pa., and is a son of Jonathan and Eliza Bowman.

Stacy Bowman attended the McCalm school in Lawrence Township when he was a boy and then accompanied his parents to Pike Township, his father purchasing the A. A. Long farm, which is now owned by Samuel and Paul Bowman. Stacy Bowman remained on the home fami until his marriage, when he moved to O’Shanter, where he lived for one year, going then to Olanta for a few months, after which he came to the farm he now owns. This place remained under his management for three years, when he moved on the George Bowman farm in Knox Township, one year later returning to O’Shanter, where he operated a meat market for one year. In 1900, he moved back to this farm, which he purchased. Mr. Bowman operates a coal bank, having a daily output of from seventy-five to 100 bushels. Mr. Bowman and family have a very comfortable residence, although it is one of the oldest in the township, having been built in 1822. On June 17, 1903, Mr. Bowman was made postmaster of Bloomington and conducted the office in this residence until the introduction of rural mail delivery, in 1907.

On April 10, 1890, Mr. Bowman was married to Miss Maud E. Wise, a daughter of Moses and Elmira J. Wise. Moses Wise was born in Center County, Pa., October 17, 1817, a son of Conrad and Margaret (Rote) Wise. Moses Wise was a boy when he came to Clearfield County, where he spent the remainder of his life. He cleared a farm of almost 100’ acres and died there.

To this marriage nine children were born, six sons and three daughters, the survivors being: John L., Amos Albert, Oliver B., Mrs. Thomas Lord and Mrs. Stacy Bowman.

The Wise family has been one of considerable prominence in this section for years. The grandfather of Mrs. Bowman was born in Germany in 1780. When he moved from Center to Clearfield County, he purchased land that was later locally known as the Lorenzo Price fann. Moses Wise, father of Mrs. Bowman, on leaving home, purchased the farm formerly owned by Samuel Thomas, who built tlie old log house still standing, in 1855. Later he sold to David Arnold, from whom Moses Wise Iwught. The latter was a well known lumberman.

He was a member of the Lutheran church and was an example of Christian manhood.
