This is the Bauer Family Farm in Prairie Hill. Texas. It was home first to Christopher Bauer, who came from
Germany with his Children including my Great Grandfather John Jacob Bower. They came to Texas from Wuertemberg on the Henschel
boat and landed at Galveston recieveing a land grant in Central Texas. After his death the land went to John and then
to my Grandfather Jacob (Louis) Bower. In recent years the home is owned by Bruce Jordan of Prairie Hill.
Still standing today quiet the attraction of Prairie Hill. Our family has collected is and buried here for
many generations. Including the Bowers, Busbys, Byrds, Roosa families.
