Decree No. 64. The seat of government was not removed till the spring of 1833 (Decree No. 214). It was doubtless the first cause of the misunderstanding that afterward divided the Mexican portion of the state.

Decrees Nos. 159 and 160. James Bowie, a son of Rezin Bowie, was born in Burke county, Georgia. Of his parents, it is said they were from Maryland. The father was a man of strong mind and sound judgment. The mother was a pious and excellent lady, and from her it was thought that the children inherited their remarkable energy of character. They had five children, viz., David, James, Rezin P., John J., and Stephen, who were all large, muscular men. In 1802, the family removed to Chatahoula parish, Louisiana.
