Was there a John F. Dowell from Maury County in this family?
He signed the marriage bond for John T. Booker and Mary Batey 9-13-1848 in Maury County, Tn. who were my relatives.

Other Booker - Dowell connections:
Mary B. Booker married Major Caleb Dowell 11-10-1833.
Ann Booker married Lorenzo Dowell 9-6-1826.
Both were daughters of John Booker and Susannah Thrift Booker of Maury Co., Tn. They lived in the Santa Fe, Theta area. Any relation?
