Dear All, About a year ago, I wrote the following. I think I may have found the definitive paper on the descendants of Sir George Bolles (Bowles). Go to: http://www.vdgs.demon.co.uk/files/chelys/16chelys1987.pdf However, now I cannot find anything at that link. It may be that you can get to the original source from the article noted in the paragraph below. Also, I have summarized what I found on the above site in the following paragraphs. Unfortunately, I did not always put in the dates. If you want to print the article (no. 3) on Sir Robert Bolles, print pages 17 thru 30. The reference for the article is: Margaret Urquhart, "Sir Robert Bowles Bt. of Scampton", VdGS Chelys, The Journal of the Viola da Gamba Society, Vol. 16 (1987), pp. 16-29. The family tree is summarized on page [27] of the article. This tree ended for the Bolles name when Sir John Bolles, 4th Baronet of Scampton, died unmarried in 1714. Therefore, it does not appear possible for our line to have descended from Sir George Bowles, Lord Mayor of London. Note that Sir George Bowles married Joan (Joanna) Hart who was the widow of a man named German Gates (see the first source on page 28 of the article). So, she was Joan Gates when Sir George married her. Sir George and Joan had only one son, John, plus two daughters, Anne and Judith. George and Joan's son, John Bowles, Ist Baronet of Scampton, married Katherine Conyers and had four sons, George, Conyers, John and Robert, and two daughters, Isabella and Joan. Conyers and John died as infants and George died at age 19 without ever having any children. Sir Robert Bolles, 2nd Baronet of Scampton, married Mary Hussey and had two sons, John and Robert, and six daughters, Isabella, Katherine, Mary, Elizabeth, Anne and Olympia. Robert died at age 24 without any children. Sir John Bolles, 3rd Baronet of Scampton, had one daughter, Mary, by his first wife and then a son, John, and a daughter, Sarah, by his second wife (possibly two other children by the second wife, Henry and Elizabeth, both of whom died in infancy or early childhood). At any rate, Sir John Bolles, 4th Baronet of Scampton, was the only chance to continue the Bolles name and he died in 1714 with no children (never married). Let me know if someone has better information or can figure out how to get to the site that I cannot now find.

Hello Leathel Then if "All the Companies mentioned were formed by the same ship owners and shareholders" and "Among members of the Virginia Company in 1620 was Sir George Bowles, the renowned Lord Mayor of London" then it is likely that Sir George was also involved in the very early days of the East India Company. Does anyone have any specific references that he was? Was the "Sheriff George Bools in Virginia in 1607" the same person as the above George? I believe he did hold the position of Sheriff of Surrey at some point. I would need to check that. Were the John Bowles and William Bowles mentioned likely connected to Sir George? I found the following in my notes: Sir George Bolles of London and Scampton, co. Lincolnshire married Joane Harte, daughter of Sir John Harte, another former Lord Mayor of London. Their children were: (Sir) John Bolles (1581-1648) who married Katherine Conyers of Broadham George Bolles Robert Bolles Anne Bolles who married Capt. Humphrey Smith of London Judith Bolles I believe the above were as mentioned in his Will.

Three days afterwards Lord Delaware arrived opposite Jamestown with three ships, on board one of which was a boy named John Bowles. These new settlers who arrived in May of 1610 were of a class superior in pioneering skill to any who had yet arrived in the Colony, and the London Company confidently believed that they would speedily make the Colony prosperous, an expectation so well realized that they may be deemed to be the real founders of Virginia.

That would be Sir George Bolles, Lord Mayor of London 1617-1618 and who died in 1621. I had not heard of his connection with the London Company or the East India Company. The East India Company obtained its charter in 1600 and the London Company in 1606 so he was around, I have just never heard of a connection. I probably do have some information on his line of descent. Could you tell us more about his history and I'll see what I can find.

*Second they did not have a daughter Lucy. *See his will below. * Dave *Will of Rodolph Norris, copied from a book at Willard Library, * Evansville p.177 A thought here - Just because someone isn't named in a will - IT means NOTHING - Too many times a child has been given property at the time of marriage and then are not named in the will - while other sources confirm the relationship - BE CAREFUL MAKING ASSUMPTIONS is the old tried and true addage.

He and his wife Dorothy (surname unknown) had ten known children. Three of these were known to have been born in St. Mary's County37: Mary Ann (b. Apr. 22, 1768, birth registered at St. Andrew's Church), Mary (bap. Aug. 25, 1771, at St. Francis Xavier, with John Bowls, Jr., and Monica Norris as sponsors), and Thomas (bap. June 27, 1773, at St. Francis Xavier, with John Low and Sarah Reily as sponsors). Some of the others10 may have been born in Kentucky: Bibiana, Jane, Susanna, Wilfred, Richard, Enoch, and William. Rodolph and Dorothy Norris were godparents to three of the children of his brother Ignatius Norris and Lucy Pike. Rodolph Norris was listed along with Francis Peake among the sixty members of the League of Catholic Families which began moving to Nelson County in 1785.
