My article on George F. Bowles published by Natchez Magazine

The article presents the story of George F. Bowles and the house he built at 13 St. Catherine St., Natchez, Miss. In addition to being a veteran of the Union Army, Bowles was a lawyer who practiced in Tennessee and in Natchez. He served as a member of the state House of Representatives from Adams County. Bowles was also a successful businessman, inventor, newspaper publisher, and philanthropist. Bowles' house is now owned by Larry and Brenda Holmes.
