I don't actually have the book on the Gowers. A couple of years ago I took a research trip to Tennessee, and the book was at the Metro Archives in Nashville. I copied all the pages relating to my line of descent (it would have been difficult to copy the entire book). The book is The Descendants of Abel Gower, Jr., compiled by by Mary L. Solomon.

I also have Nathan Marion Gatlin's will, as well as the will of John McNairy Gatlin, who died before Nathan did. Nancy's husband John F. Page is a witness to both wills. I have copies of some pages from a book on the Gower family which lists the children, but it would be nice to have better evidence than that.
Here is my line of descent, starting from our common ancestors:
Nathan Marion Gatlin married Obedience Lucas
John McNairy Gatlin married Margaret "Peggy" Gower
William Dow Gatlin married Mary Nevins
John William M. Gatlin married Sarah Claire Dyer
Henry Brown Gatlin married Anna Gertrude Tarkington
Henry Cornelius Gatlin married Helen Martha Marie Anderson
Donald Edward Gatlin married Karen Pauline Boe (my parents)
