I thought it had been discontinued. If any Bowdoin is a northern family member, you can try to contact Bowdoin College. They have lots of info. I called them many years ago but my Bowdon family headed south from parts unknown. The college doesn't seem to have records on southern Bowdon/Bowden/Bowdoin families.

Hello Bowden's, Karen of andover-mg@juno.com sent a message mentioning Bowdoin College which was founded by Pierre Baudouin. Does any one know if all Bowden decedents in the U.S. go back to this man? I knew nothing about this college so thank you very much Karen for mentioning it, it has quite an impressive history. With all of the Bowden family branches coming in on this Bowden link, is any one keeping a complete tree of all of us? Katherine
