The House of Fowler by Grover Parson Fowler and more
importantly I have an index to the book which was written in
1960 by Mrs. Cline. The House of Fowler was written in 1940 and
contains a lot of Greenville families. It is in libraries on
microfilm but without an index it is hard to use. The Fowlers
and Pedens intermarried.
