No, never heard of it. Dowager is a perfectly good word. The wife of a Duke is a Duchess. When the Duke dies, his son becomes the new Duke, and daughter-in-law is the new Duchess. The old Duke's widow becomes the Dowager Duchess. If she moves to a different house on the Ducal estate, that house is called the Dower House.

I'm not familiar with the term "dowger." It might be a misspelling or a less common word. Could you provide more context or details to help clarify its meaning?
