  • Notes 
    • From the Bull Family History

      NOTE. -The family of Stephen Bowerman moved to Battle Creek, Michigan.
      Stephen was married to Phebe Garrett - daughter of Isaac Garrett and Sarah Carman.
      They were married at the "Big White House," on the same day (Friday, 18th Sept., 1818) as were married William Garrett (brother of Phebe) and Patience Bull, and Townsend Garrett and Sally Bowerman.
      That was an occasion not to he overlooked; it was an early "triple-alliance," and demanded ratification by the assembled neighborhood, in the collective capacity of an old-timed
      charivari. That even was authentically stated by "the oldest inhabitant" never to have been surpassed for the extravagant invention of furious fun and frolic.
      The vestibuled Pullmans in which the newly contracted parties began their wedding tours consisted of heavy farm waggons without springs, and furnished with large waggon chairs.
      When these had been taken apart and replaced in proper shape upon the ground-for the charivaring party had placed them astride the barn roof-they were free to pursue their journey over the corduroy roads leading to their
      various residences near Wellington, then the Township of Ameliasburg.
