===================================================================== Match: Bowles Source: [email protected] From: "Linda Reno" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [MDSTMARY] Phillip Norris Hi, I was off running errands yesterday and this morning I'm trying to play "catch up." Not an easy task. After all of this back and forth, I (for one, maybe) have come to the conclusion that the correct Philip Norris is the one born 1754, son of John Norris and Mary Howard. He and his brother, Henry went to KY, probably together. It only makes sense and besides, Philip of Thomas and Mary was still here in the late 1700s. Henry and Henry Elijah Norris were the same man. Eleanor aka Ellen Hagan married (I've seen no proof yet that she was named Mary Eleanor--anybody got anything?) m. John Wimsatt, Henry Norris, and John Downs. I show this John Downs as the son of Joseph (aka Josiah) Downs and Ann Sanner of St. Mary's Co. I truly don't believe the man died at 104 or 108 as some have claimed. He was probably about the right age that was given at the time of the 1850 census. Will of Joseph Downs, SMC, 2/24/1803-3/2/1803. Son: Jeremiah Downs, half of "Abell's Chance" where I now live; one pewter dish; two pewter plates; and one bed and furniture. Grandson: Uriah Downs, the other half of "Abell's Chance." If he dies without heirs, it is devised to his father, Barnabas Downs. Son: Ignatius Downs, "Forest of Dean." If he dies with the sickness he now lays with, the land is to be sold and the money is to be divided among all of my children in this County then living. Son: John Downs, now living in Kentucky, 25 pounds Maryland currency. Grandchildren: Joseph Seaton and Mary Seaton, 25 pounds current money equally divided. Grandchildren: Joseph Norris and Mary Norris, 25 pounds current money equally divided. If they die without heirs, to their mother, Ann Norris. Daughter: Elizabeth Downs, 25 pounds current money; one bed and furniture; one pewter dish; two pewter plates; one iron pot and hooks; and one cow and calf. Son: Barnabas Downs, one pewter dish; two pewter plates; and one cow and calf. Son: Joseph Downs, one pewter dish; two pewter plates; and one cow and calf. Daughter: Henrietta McKinney, one pewter dish and two pewter plates. Children: Ignatius Downs, Joseph Downs, Jeremiah Downs, Barnabas Downs, Elizabeth Downs, Ann Norris, and Henrietta McKinney, the proceeds from the sale of my two negro men named Phil and Peter and from the sale of the residue of my estate equally divided. Exec.: Son, Jeremiah Downs. Wit.: Joseph Gough, William Combs, Elizabeth Dyer. (St. Mary's County, Maryland Wills, 1803-1820 by Linda Reno). Ann Downs, sister of John, married Vincent Norris, son of Clement Norris and Elizabeth Van Reswick and grandson of Thomas Norris and Jane Greenwell (parents of Rodolphus Norris). Barnabas Downs, brother of John, married Elizabeth Frances Greenwell here in 1798 and they moved to Washington Co., KY. Now to catch up on the children of Henry Norris and of Philip Norris. Help???

Chesterfield Co. VA Will Book # 2, pg 315. Will of Elizabeth Marten 5 March 1774. All estate divided between my children Mary Boles, Thalton Marten, Annsil Marten, Sarah Boles, Peter Marten, Elizabeth Moody, Agnes Boles, and Tabitha Nunnelly. Exc. Thomas Boles and Henry Boles Wit; Thomas Nunnelly, Jeremiah Nunnelly, Sarah Boles. Elizabeth Marten is believed to be the wife of Peter Marten. Elizabeth had three daughters to marry into the Boles family. Mary Marten married Thomas Boles b1733. Sarah and Agnes Marten married Henry and Zachariel Boles brothers of Thomas Boles. Which one married which, I don't know? Zachariel b.1745 moved to Indiana in the 1790's. Not all his children moved to Indiana. Henry was remarried to Rachel Bailey in 1783 and they moved to Amelia Co, VA. where he died before 1830. His son Henry also lived in Amelia Co, VA. According to the 1830 census Rachel was born between 1750-60. My guess Henry was born between 1745-50. Thomas had a son named Henry who has been believed to marry Rachel Bailey, I don't believe this is correct because Rachel would be 10-15 years older than his Henry. The only son of Zachariel that I know by name is Edmund born 1765 who moved to Indiana with Zachariel. You can tell by the 1783 census that these three Boles had several children. Census for Chesterfield Co. 1783. Henry Boles, 10 whites Thomas Boles, 9 whites Zack Boles, 7 whites Leathel,

Thanks Annette, I seen that John had married Nancy soon after I made the post, also found more information on the GA Bowles under Booles. What I am working on is the Chesterfield Co Bowles line and I believe that Henry belongs to this line in some way. I will post some information on the Chesterfield line and see what you think?

Leathel We have no paper trail of Henry before he signed a petition in Charles City Co., VA, in 1780. He paid taxes there in 1784, then was in Prince George Co. from 1785-1791, in Sussex from 1792-1801, in Greensville from 1802-1805, back in Sussex in 1806-1807. He was in Bedford Co. by 1811, and died there in 1821, leaving a will. A probable daughter married in Sussex Co. in 1806 - to John Jones. Henry was bondsman. We think she and her husband probably died young without issue. The only record that I feel fairly sure is this couple was a deed selling land in 1814. We have found no record before 1780 and no DNA matches to give us any clues. One line of descendants that Elizabeth Little found said that Susannah Hill was Henry's wife. We have no marriage record and don't know if Susannah was the mother of all his children. He is very frustrating! If you can connect him to anybody, we will be thrilled!

Thank you, Chris and Tom, for being brave and doing your best to translate one of the messages that I sent in last night. I was on shaky ground, not having a firm idea if Grant Bowles and Kerry Oberholzer were getting married or attending marriage classes or were reconsidering. I just went by intuition and posted it. I want to encourage everyone to be brave, as Chris and Tom were, if they have a little specialized knowledge that might help the rest of us when they see one of my postings that could be clarified.

I learned a little Dutch at one point. For "Kerry OBERHOLZER en Grant BOWLES is in die St. Marks-kerk in die Baai in die huwelik verbind." I would go with "Kerry Oberholzer and Grant Bowles were bound in marriage at St. Marks Church on the Bay" Huwelik is usually spelt "huwelijk" though but it does mean marriage and verbind means to be bound.

"No preacher is listened to but Time: which gives us the same train and turn of thought that elder people have tried in vain to put into our hearts."-(Jonathan Swift). It is not apathy or indifference, my friends, to the celebration of "Old Home Week" that will explain all too great brevity or any manifest unevenness in my remarks on this commemorative occasion. Rather is my fondly cherished but ruthlessly shattered hope that another might have been here, clad in Episcopal robes, to recount in familiar accents some of the events in the Cambridge of yesterday of which he was a large part and .to which his mind lovingly reverts today, if though his feet tarry by the way-I refer to Rt. Rev. W. A. Jones, D. D., O. S. A., Bishop of Porto Rico. Consulting the records of our small parish which are by no means easy of access, we are forced to confine ourselves to such events as have found place only in fugitive scraps of information as were gath°©ered in book-form by the enterprise of private persons. In the "History of Washington County, New York," published by Lippincott & Co., of Philadelphia, Pa., we read that Rev. Geo. A. Meagher of the Order of "Priests of St. Augustine", who was pastor of this church in 1874, gave this rather succinct account of the early days in so far as he had definite knowledge.<>[i] He says: "The first Mass in the town of Cambridge was celebrated in the house of James Connaughty, by Rev. J. B. Daly, in the fall of 1839, and in the house of Edward Fox, in 1840, by the same priest. He then had a very large parish. It comprised the western HISTORY of ST. PATRICK'S CHURCH 91 half of Massachusetts, the whole of New Hampshire and Vermont, also the northeastern part of New York from Troy to Lake Champlain. In 1841, the Rev. Father Quinn, then living with Father Shananhan, pastor of St. Peter's church, Troy; celebrated Mass at Buskirk's Bridge. The congregation numbered forty-five. Shortly after, Father Coyle was appointed pastor of Rensselaer and Washington Counties. He built the first Catholic church in Schaghticoke, holding missions in both counties for about two years. He was succeeded by Father Gilligan, who did the same for about one year. - The next priest was Father Farley, since pastor in Jamaica, L. I., . who was permanently stationed in Schaghticoke, and officiated in both counties in different places. He was the first priest who possessed a horse and buggy in these parts. He celebrated the first Mass in the old Baptist church at Hoosick Falls. There was no place he could secure in the village of Cambridge, as much prejudice then existed against Catholicism. He went, however, up the mountain, and celebrated Mass in some poor Irishman's (James Bain's) humble dwelling. He was next sent to Lansingburgh, and, in 1850, was succeeded by Rev. Dr. Hugh Quigley. In the fall of 1853, during the construction of the Troy and Boston, and Rutland and Washington railroads, Father Quigley began to build the present St. Patrick's church, previous to which he said Mass in the old- brick school house on North Park Street (now a dwelling,) and also in the house or wagon-shop of Thomas McGrane (since burned down), opposite Mr. Potter's dwelling; subsequently in the old hall where Mr. Fuller's block now stands. This old hall was burned in 1866. In the spring of 1855, Father Havermans took charge and com°©pleted the present church edifice. During his government the Revs. Herfkins Bradley and L'Abbe Cheves, from the Albany Cathedral, all officiated in this parish. The records of marriages and deaths during their administration are still to be seen in fairly good condition in our rectory. In November, 1856, Rev. Jonathan Furlong was appointed pastor. He died in the spring of 1857, and his remains were buried under the altar of the present church. Later they were re-interred in the new cemetery. 92 OLD HOME WEEK In July, 1857, Rev. John McDermott became pastor, and continued until the fall of 1862, when the parish came under the care of the Augustinian Fathers from Philadelphia, Pa., who at present have charge. Father McDermott had as a parish, Hoosick Falls, Buskirk's Bridge, Cambridge and Salem, where he built, in 1859, the church of the Holy Cross, since replaced by the present one built by Fr. Dona°©hue, late of Albany. Fr. McDermott enlarged and decorated the church in Hoosick Falls, built a fine addition to the pastoral residence here, and otherwise beautified the place. ST. PATRICK'S CHURCH AND PAROCHIAL HOUSE, CAMBRIDGE, N. Y. He was succeeded, in October, 1862, by Rev. James A. Darragh, O. S. A., now an invalid at Villanova College, Pa. His assistant was Rev. Edward M. Mullen, O. S. A. The mission was the same in extent that Fr. McDermott attended ; that is, from Buskirk's Bridge on the south, to Granville on the north, and from the State line on the east to the Hudson River on the west above Schaghticoke. Father Darragh was succeeded by Rev. E. Aug. Dailey, O. S. A., in "August, 1865, who attended to this extensive mission himself for one year. The next year Rev. Edward C. Donnelly, O. S. A., came as assistant and officiated in Salem and Cambridge-Father Dailey HISTORY of ST. PATRICK'S CHURCH 93 attending to Hoosick Falls until his removal in April, 1867, to this place, which then became a separate parish. Father Donnelly became pastor of Cambridge and Salem, and had as assistant, Rev. Timothy Hayes, O. S. A., who died in 1869. Rev. James D. Waldron, O. S. A., became pastor November 21, 1868, and in January, 1869, opened the mission in Greenwich, saying Mass in Temperance Hall, in the Brick Block, every second Sunday, until the present church was bought from the Methodists, and fitted up by his successor, Rev. J. J. Fedigan, O. S. A., who became pastor in 1870. There were in Greenwich about sixty families when Father Fedi°©gan said the first Mass and about eighty children in the Sunday school. Sunday schools were opened in each of the missions as soon as they were begun. Father Fedigan, O. S. A., had as assistants, the follow°©ing.: Rev. Father McDonald, who returned to Europe in 1872-73 Rev. Timothy O'Donovan, O. S. A., who died as pastor of Schaghti°©coke in January, 1875 ; also Rev. Thomas A. Field, O. S. A., since pastor in Mechanicville, Saratoga County. It was under Father Fedi°©gan that St. Joseph's in Greenwich became what it is now (1874), a beautiful Roman Catholic church. He was succeeded in January, 1874, by Rev. George A. Meagher, O. S. A., who made many improvements, not the least among them being the purchase of a bell for the church, the sweetest-toned in this valley. In September, 1875, Father Dailey returned to Cambridge and succeeded Father Field as assistant, and is now (1874) living with Father Meagher. During Father Fedigan's pastorate, Salem, became a separate parish under Father O'Sullivan of Albany diocese. In August, 1874, Father Meagher, began the church at Buskirk's Bridge, and held a service there every second Sunday, Father Donnelly of Hoosick Falls is now (1874) in charge of his mission. In the fall of 1875, Father Meagher built a chapel at White Creek village, and held services once a month, and sometimes oftener. Services have also been held at Shushan, in Congdons Hall, and in private houses. Mis°©sion work has been commenced at Bald Mountain by Father Dailey of Greenwich, who says Mass in the hall over Mr. Burke's residence. near the lime-kilns. Before 1870 Mass was said in Greenwich by Father Fedigan. Services were frequently held in Easton (North) and Barker's Grove, in this County, by Rev. Louis M. Edge, O. S. A., and Rev. G. A. Meagher, O. S. A., both pastors successively in Schaghticoke." 94 OLD HOME WEEK Thus far the printed history takes us. Father Meagher was succeeded by Father Bowles, a priest of large heart but of thrilling eccentricities as all who knew him will admit. We recall the exclamation of delight made by a devout woman of the parish on her first entrance to St. Patrick's church after it had been renovated and brilliantly lighted up a few years ago-"Glory be, isn't it fine! I thought I was in heaven, till I saw Fr. Bowles and then I knew where I was." After a term of two years Rev. Wm. A. Marsden ,O. S. A., was succeeded by Father Francis A. McCranor, O. S. A., under whose splendid foresight the future Bishop Jones was directed to prepare for the priesthood in Villanova and who today presides over the See of Porto Rico which diocese was erected by Pope Julius IL August 8, 1511-or nineteen years after Columbus discovered America. Father McCranor also enlarged the church to its present dimen°©sons and otherwise wrought well both here and in Hoosick Falls, where he died March, 1914. Father Maurice J. Murphy, O. S. A., comes next-a man of childlike simplicity who won the love of all. As his assistant, Rev. Augustine Leonard, O. S. A., is well remembered here, having died here March 22, 1894, at the early age * of 32 years. Father Jeremiah J. Ryan, O. S. A., labored here for four years, though not of robust health and was succeeded in 1890 by Rev. Thos. A. Field, O. S. A who has been mentioned already many times by reason of his long priestly services in this diocese. For a while there dwelt among us, at this time, one whom as a luminary in the literary and ecclesiastical world, and yet as guileless as a child, viz: Rev. F. X. McGowan, O. S. A., whose sermons both written and- spoken were such as only real scholars are wont to give. We are today, my brethren, a congregation of seven hundred and eighty souls (780) of whom just 300 are children under 18 years. HISTORY OF ST. PATRICK'S CHURCH 95 Four hundred and ten are of the devout female sex and three hundred and sixty are males. Many think we have a fairly ideal parish with some advantages not enjoyed in all rural districts. However, we thank God this blessed day for being called to His Holy Faith and for the service this church has done to our kith and kin since its earliest day. Hither your parents came on the Lord's day for prayer and pub°©lic worship. Here they were cheered and consoled to behold "the beauty of the throne of God, and the place where His Glory dwelleth." (Psa. 25-8). Here they forgot the world and its toils and its vanities when they came within the walls of this temple; every emblem of which is calculated to prefigure to the Catholic mind "the eternal good things that are to come." Once within these sacred precincts we, as they did, bid farewell (for the time being) to all mun°©dane thoughts, to think on the higher things. (Sursum corda). They reverently besprinkled themselves and their children with the water sanctified by the benediction of the Church, impressing on their mind the necessity of purity of intention and simplicity of heart while engaged in the service of the Lord. The emblems of angels and saints. here and there, reminded them of the watchful care of guardian angels. The sanctuary's spreading arch awed them with thoughts of the Majesty of the Most High-the tones of the organ elevated by voices harmonizing in the tuneful praises of the Lord, seemed as if identified with the celestial choirs singing praises for ever to Him "who was, who is and who ever shall be." (Apoc. IV). The priestly vestments represented to them the attractive beauty and attributes of the Eternal; the lights brilliantly reflected the joys of Paradise and the incense-the homage of their adoration; the fragrance of the flowers adorning the altar bespoke the odor of edifying and Christian conversation; the pictures of the saints placed in relief those virtues that made them favorites of heaven and exhort us today as then to cultivate the same, as we hope to join them in the hereafter. The Crucifix brought them in spirit to the foot of Calvary where the Saviour died for our Redemption, as it today excites in us contrition for our sins, for we know it was sin that fixed Him a bleeding victim upon the cross and it impresses us with love for Him "who blotted out the handwriting that was against us."-but above all did they rivet their eyes on the Tabernacle wherein is contained the Holy of Holies. How glorious the thought !-how entrancing the desire of 96 OLD HOME WEEK their simple devout souls to prostrate themselves in the presence of their Lord Jesus Christ there to crave mercy, peace and benediction from the very source of power, of sanctity and love ! Truly "this is none other than the home of God and Gate of Heaven"-and such has it been for your predecessors-such may it continue to be for yourselves ! Here for more than half a century have been enunciated the same unchanging doctrines-"the faith once delivered to the saints;" here taught obedience to God and the civil authority; here we partook of the seven sacraments as taught by Christ through His church : the Holy Catholic Apostolic Church--Holy in Her Founder; Holy in Her doctrine, Holy in the lives of so many of Her saintly members. Yes, saints have lived near this altar; saints have been carried hence to yonder cemetery but their souls are with God. Ye salute the blest spirits of those gone before-some have their names on memorial window or station or on marble tablet-and there were others whose holy lives were their only and best gifts to their children. "I think upon the days of old." "Blessed are the dead who died in the Lord." To recapitulate-Four Popes have known and blessed anon this little parish; Pius IX, Leo XIII, Pius X and Benedict XV. Five Bishops have shepherded us,-McCloskey, Conroy, McNierney, Burke and Cusack. Four and twenty priests have ministered to your spiritual wants and you "who have been instructed in the word, have indeed communicated to him that instructed him, in all good things." (Gal. V. 25, VI. I-io). A Bishop, priests, nuns, authors, teachers, physicians, judges, architects, contractors, nurses, converts, have adorned the records of this parish; men too, and woman of great faith and noble char°©acter, these were where we are now-let us be heartened today as we think of them above with the God whom they loved and worshipped, that where they are now, we may some day, by God's grace be, safe in the Arms of Jesus.-Amen.

This one came to me yesterday, so when I asked Sharon Pike ([email protected]) for her permission to forward it to the Bowles list, I also asked her if she could tell me anything about the Rev. Ada C. Bowles, who I'd never heard of before. Sharon scanned a copy of a newspaper column, which you see below. If anyone on our list is related to Rev. Bowles, perhaps they can tell us more about her and her family.

BOWLES. An American Woman Who Has Dared to Preach [Special Correspondence] CHICAGO, Nov. 7.-The Rev. Ada C. Bowles comes from the sturdy stock of New England, which gave to the republic its educational system. She was born in Gloucester, Mass., in 1836. She grew up with a passionate fondness for the sea and is, as she has always been, equally at home either in or on the water. She is an expert swimmer, and her undaunted courage and rare presence of mind have enabled her upon different occasions to rescue persons from drowning. Nature gave her a sound mind in a sound body, and her early life among the rocks of Cape Ann gave her the well balanced physical development which resulted in a perfectly healthy womanhood. Acquiring rapidly and with ease all that was taught in the public schools of Gloucester she was yet wholly unsatisfied with her attainments and pushed forward with different studies by herself. At the age of 15 she began to teach in the public schools. She continued in this vocation until she was 22, employing, meanwhile, such leisure as she could command in study and in writing for the press. She then married a popular clergyman, Rev. B. F. Bowles, pastor of the Universalist church, at Melrose, Mass. Altbough by this marriage she became the stepmother of three children and later the mother of three more, she still fonnd time for a variety of church work, including teaching an adult Bible class. Her success with this class led her to deeper theological study, under the direction of her husband. Mr. Bowles is a man who recognizes in his wife a talented human being, possessed of ability if not identical, at least equal with his own. He desired that his wife should be in all things his companion, and after having given her a thorough course in theology, he encouraged her to preach the gospel, which she had long felt called to declare. She began in 1869 by supplying vacant pulpits in New England. In 1872 she was licensed to preach, and in a short time she was called to the Universalist church at Easton, Pa. While she was pastor or the church at Easton her husband had charge of the Church of the Restoration in Philadelphia. Mrs. Bowles was regularly ordained in 1874, and since has preached and lectured in most of the large cities of the United States. At present Mrs. Bowles is the non-resident pastor of the Universalist church at East Gloucester, Mass., while her husband has charge of the Universalist church at Abingdon, in the same state. In addition to her ministerial duties she lectures in various parts of the country under the auspices of the Women's Christian Temperance union, in which organization she has charge of the department of scientific temperance. She is also the national lecturer of the American Suffrage association. In addition to all these duties Mrs. Bowles still finds time to be a notable housekeeper, and is ever a cheery, affectionate wife and mother. One of her family asserts that her sense of humor and unfailing good spirits are a constant source of brightness in the household. Indeed, so well ordered is her home that among her friends and coworkers she is known as the "model housekeeper." One of her most popular lectures is "Strong Minded Housekeeping," which is an embodiment of her own experience. Mrs. Bowles is possessed of remarkable mechanical dexterity and handles a hammer and saw as cleverly as a rolling pin. She is small of stature, with a strong, magnetic face and soft curling iron gray hair. She is lithe and full of nervous energy, and in speaking is not only enthusiastic and eloquent, but is clear and logical, with an intense sincerity which appeals to the convictions. In listening to her one can but feel that the opinions she utters have been a light to her own steps. Mrs. Bowles is very popular, and is always sure of a crowded auditorium wherever she speaks. Indeed, the advice which John Wesley gave to a woman preacher in his day might fittingly be given her. The counsel of tho quaint old preacher was: "Do not speak at any place where a man is preaching; at the same time, lest you draw away his hearers." In all that she undertakes Mrs. Bowles is prompt and incisive, and in private life is as constant in good works as she is able in public, in inspiring others to all worthy endeavor.

Anytime, Linda..... My wife and I visited the graves of Hughes Bowles , his son, Anderson and Anderson's daughter, Ruth Elizabeth (Bowles) Adams last summer. It was a wonderful feeling to be able to visit their graves. We had a stone set for my great great grandparents, Oliver J.Q. & Ruth Elizabeth (Bowles) Adams, as theirs was getting hard to read the names.
