Is the below John Fowler, Sr.?
1840 Pike County, Alabama Census, p. 361
:1m 50-60 [John W. Fowler] :1f 40-50 :1f 15-20 :1m 10-15 :1f 10-15 :1m 05-10 [Living next door to Lewis Fowler (20-30)] The 1850 Census shows a John and Elisabeth Fowler living in Pike County, Alabama. There are four children in their household: Nathaniel Fowler ( 21, b. North Carolina), Simon Fowler (16, b. Alabama), William Fowler (13, b. Alabama) and Catharine (12, b. Alabama). It is not clear whether this is the same John Fowler. More research is needed.<ref name="1850Census">"United States Census, 1850," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MH57-VY2 : accessed 19 November 2015), John Fowler, Pike county, Pike, Alabama, United States; citing family 485, NARA microfilm publication M432 (Washington, D.C.: National Archives and Records Administration, n.d.).</ref> The 1860 Census shows a John and Elizabeth Fowler living in Gilmer, Georgia. Their household contains four children: Lemuel J (14, b. Georgia), Nancy A (11, b. Georgia), Jerry D (9, b. Georgia) and John P (5) There were originally two profiles for John Fowler. One had his birth year as 1792 and birth place as North Carolina; the other as 1793 and birth place as South Carolina. However, the 1850 Census shows his birth year as 1798 and his birth place as S. Carolina, so that's what is being kept until further documentation proves otherwise. -- [[Fiscus-32|Fiscus-32]] 17:54, 19 November 2015 (EST) Did Nathaniel (the son of John) marry 23 Aug 1852 in Pike County to Faitha Wood?<ref>"Alabama, County Marriages, 1809-1950", database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VRJB-6HP : 16 July 2015), Nathaniel S Fowler and Faitha Wood, 1852.</ref> If so, his middle initial was 'S'.
