JAMES BOWDEN was born Abt 1805 in Temple, Bristol, according to details given in the 1851 and 1881 census. He married FRANCES BABB 20th December 1826 in Bedminster Old Church, Bristol. He had 10 children, and I have details on descendents of one daughter in Australia, and a son in Canada, besides my family from another daughter. The Temple records are very poor quality, and non existent for the years that matter to me. I would appreciate any info at all on James.
