  1. Could this be the same Jarvis Dowd's son? (posted by Jean Petree, maternal grandmother was Jennie K. Dowd).

    David F. Dowd. A resident of Idaho Falls since 1904, Mr. Dowd has been prominently identified with the material progress and substantial upbuilding of this fine little city, ......
    Mr. Dowd was born at Owen Sound, province of Ontario, Canada, on the 15th of September, 1863, and is a son of Jarvis and Elise (Atchison) Dowd, both of whom were young at the time of the emigration of the respective families to the Dominion of Canada. Jarvis Dowd, a man of enterprise and sterling character, became one of the prosperous agriculturists of Sullivan county, Ontario, and there he continued to maintain his home until his death, in 1894, at the age of 67 years, his devoted wife having been summoned to eternal rest in 1887, at the age of 48 years. Of the 14 children, David F., of this review, was the seventh. In order of birth, and besides him, six sons and five daughters are now living. ...... In November, 1886, was solemnized the marriage of Mr. Dowd to Miss Mary B. Lawler, who like himself is a native of the province of Ontario, Canada, where her father, the late James Lawler, was engaged in farming during the major part of his active career and where his death occurred, his home having been at Belleville, where his widow still resides. In conclusion of this sketch is entered brief record concerning the children of Mr. and Mrs. Dowd: David G., who was born in La Froey county, province of Ontario, Canada, in 1987, is now successfully engaged in farming in Bonneville county, Idaho; Mary Gertrude, who was born in the province of Ontario, in 1889, still resides in her native province and is the wife of C.W. Bartlett, their children being three in number; George, who was born in the state of Utah, in 1893, is identified with ranching operations in Bonneville county, Idaho; Charles A., likewise a native of Utah, where he was born in the year 1895, is attending the public schools of Idaho Falls, as is also Jennie K., who was born in Utah in 1902; Thomas, who was born in Canada, died at the age of one year and eight months, and Josephine who was born in Butte, Montana, died in Utah, at the age of 20 months.
