I am a descendant of Bowleses from North Carolina originally. Anyone knowing of any relatives of Abraham Bowles (born 12/22/1804 in Rockford, N.C., died 2/19/1856 in Marshall County, Iowa), or Elisabeth Jackson Bowles, his wife, (born 8/7/1804 and died 8/17/1847, was buried South of Indianapolis, Indiana on Willam Lander's farm). Several children were born to this union, those of which I have no death information for are: Rebeca Bowles, born January 12,1833, Rozina Bowles, born November 8, 1838, Elizabeth born December 3, 1840, Mary T. Bowles, born January 10, 1843. Several male children were also born into the family, but to the best of my knowledge, only my great-great grandfather (Joseph Wesley Bowles, born December 4, 1836) lived to have children. My gg grandfather moved West and settled in Littleton, CO, having a street named after him because of his significant land holdings in the past. If anyone knows of descendants of these people, I would love to hear from you. Thank you, L. Mercier

Here is a list of Bowles born in St Peter Parish. We have a Thomas Bowles born 1733, I have him as Thomas Bowles who married Mary Martin of the Chesterfield Co Bowles. The reason is on page 147 we have the first two sons of Thomas and Mary (Martin) born in St Peter Parish.At the bottom I have added The Parish Register of Christ Church, Middlesex County, VA from 1653 to 1812. This Parish has a John Bowles and Mary in it that are from Hanover Co (St Paul Parish) that moved to Middlesex Co in the mid 1740's and then back to Hanover Co in mid 1750's. At one time I thought Thomas son of John and Mary was the Thomas that married Mary Martin, not so.

It looks like New Kent Co had two parishes (St Steven's & St. Peter's) until 1704 when St Peter's Parish was divided into two parishes (St Peter's & St Paul's). In 1720 St Paul's Parish became Hanover Co,VA. Hanover Co is located between the Pamunkey River (northside) and Chickahominy River (southside). Here is a list of Bowles I have that were in New Kent Co between 1654 and 1720. Not all Bowles in New Kent Co lived in St Paul Parish in 1720 that became Hanover Co.

BOLES of Mansfield, 4 and 3 Canton, Ohio, July 11 -- William F. DEUSCHLE, hailing from the Arlington Country club, Columbus, failed to defend his state amateur golf title, annexed last year at Youngstown, when match play rounds in the 26th annual Ohio classic opened here today. The Columbus title-holder was apparently beaten at the ninth hole when his opponent, L.C. BOLES, Mansfield, and athletic director at Wooster college, led by a four-up margin. DEUSCHLE was off his game and failed to get started, winding up on the short end of a 4 and 3 score. Another decided upset in the first round occurred when Marshall GODMAN of the Columbus Country club, considered a favorite by virtue of his recent central Ohio district victory, fell before M.J. BERNET, Cleveland, 4 and 3. Results of other first round matches played Thursday morning are: Nelson RUDDY, Cincinnati, defeated L.P. TUFFORD, Elyria, 5-4; Bill LANMAN, Columbus, upset Frank BOLI, Cleveland, 6-5; Ed HAYMANT, Dayton, eliminated Joe TOTH, Cleveland, two up, Harry FACKLER, Dayton, beat Ray MILLER, Toledo, two up and Joe WELLS eliminated the youthful George BERRY of Newark, two up. The second Columbus player to enter the second round of play, scheduled for Thursday afternoon, was Henry LANMAN of the Scioto Country club. He triumphed over C.A. HOWILER, Barberton, 4-3. In other first-round matches, John MUNRO, Akron, defeated S.S. HUGHES, Cleveland, 5-3; John HERRON, Akron, walked over Dave WINTRINGER, Steubenville, to the tune of 6 and 4 and Johnny FIORIO of the Elks club at Columbus, eliminated Bob KAUFFMAN, Canton, by the astounding margin of 7 and 6. Bill QUINN, Canton, continued in the running for the title by defeating C.W. BRAY, Youngstown, two up. If you would like a photocopy of an article, please contact me.

"Dr. E. T. Ellison. Dr. Eugene T. Ellison, in his 88th year, died at his home here Saturday night at 8 o'clock, following a two week's illness of pneumonia. "Surviving are his wife, two daughters, Mrs. Frank Lucas, of Detroit, Mich., Mrs. J. D. Smoot, this place, and one son, Mr. Tom Ellison, Savannah, Georgia. One sister, Mrs. J. N. Fisher, of Temple, Texas, also survives. "After funeral services at the home Monday afternoon, by Rev. Biser, of the Christian church, of which Dr. Ellison was a member, burial was in the Glasgow cemetery. Pallbearers: Messrs. Winn Davis, A. E. Ely, Alex. Dickinson, C. C. Carden, James E. Clayton and George Ellis. "Dr. Ellison was born in Cumberland County March 29, 1854, a son of S. T. Ellison, a distingujished man of Virginia (note he died 1923). "For twenty years, Dr. Ellison was one of the leading druggists of Glasgow, following his retirement from the practice of medicine, fifteen years of which practice was at Red Boiling Springs, Tenn., where he was universally loved and respected. "After engaging in the drug business here with remarkable success, Dr. Ellison retired from active participation in the affairs of business two years ago; but he never wholly gave up his interest and love of pharmaceutical work. He excelled in this, and was one of the greatest druggists Southern Kentucky ever had. "Dr. Ellison served as mayor of Glasgow for two terms, and made one of the greatest executives Glasgow ever had. Many improvements of a permanent and lasting nature today stand as a tribute to his genius and unglagging efforts to help the city. "Deceased was active in the Masonic lodge and Knights of Pythias, of which he was a loyal member. "Dr. Ellison was twice married. In 1877 he was united in marriage to Miss Elizabeth Botts, to which union the children mentioned above were born. His second wife, was Miss Jennie L. Boles, of this place, who survive. "It can be truly said that Dr. Ellison's death removes a man universally popular. We never knew a man with as many lasting and true friends, nor anybody who made and held friends as did Dr. Ellison. His very nature was friendliness itself. He was a good man - kind and considerate. His charities were legion, and the good he did on this earth will forever keep his memory green. "He was consistent in his views - a substantial citizen, and a factor in the upbuilding of Glasgow and its people. And his death is particularly sad, for he retired from business to enjoy life mingling and mixing with friends and neighbors, as he once told the writer. "As a neighbor, as a father, and as a friend, he was far beyond the average - was all that ___ as God directs ___ the earth, which has been made finer because of his influence."

Top of obituary faded out. "She had lived in Glasgow practically all her life but left a few years ago to make her home in Lexington with her sons. She was the daughter of the late J. M. Boles, who came to this county from Cumberland many years ago. Also, she was a niece of the late Judge Boles, one of the most noted lawyers ever associated in the Glasgow bar and in Southern Kentucky. She was prominently connected with some of the oldest and best known families in the county, and her father was at one time sheriff of this county. As Miss Addie Belle Boles she married Mr. W. A. McQuown, and to them were born four sons. The second time, she was married to Mr. Haiden T. Dickey, one of the most popular and best known men and grocery merchants that ever lived. Mr. Dickey died a few years ago and since that time she had been living in Lexington with her sons. "There never lived a more devoted and loyal mother; her whole life and affections were centered on her children and she was faithful to them unto the end. Kind, compassionate, and charitable she relieved the sufferings of many with her deeds of kindnessand she was ever willing to respond to the wants of the lowliest and the humblest, even though she deprived herself of the worldly comforts. Through her years of trouble and distress, she was ever mindful of her children and so were they always thoughtful and considerate of their mother. She was always interested in church affairs and always strived to live a good Christian life. Hers was a strong character and she possessed many excellent and noble traits of a splendid woman and ideal mother. She was a member of the Christian Church. "She is survived by her four sons: Messrs. Elim, Owen, Murray and Jim, all of Lexington. Also one sister and two brothers mourn her loss: Mrs. Lizzie Botts, of Louisville, and Judge John H. Boles, and Mr. Sam Boles, both of this place. The grief stricken family and sorrowing sons have the deepest sympathy of the entire community in the loss of their dear mother and best friend. "The remains were brought here Sunday and interred in the cemetery at this place, after short funeral services at the grave by Elder W. K. Clements." Glasgow Municipal Cemetery.

Ed This is what I think. You and I and Peter Brantly are coz's You and I are from Peter Morris and he is from Henery Holman and they were brothers. Peter back in 1972 talked with my family and told us we were from Thomas 1798 and from Thomas 1761. He also said Thomas 1761 Dad was Valentine 1720 and his Dad was William 1690. I wonder if Peter Brantly was named after Peter Morris His Mother was Genevia Young1924 and his Grandmouther was Edith Bowles 1902 His Dad was William Jos. Bowles 1826. It could be William 1690 Dad was Thomas 16?? and His Dad was John maybe 1581 There is a Valentine and before him a Charles, These two in England. I must say not ony Peter Brantly but a researcher Named Donald Bowles agrees in part of my findings. The most important findings are with Bowles-L where all seems to be helping all of us.

This may or may not be the same Rev J.C. Bowles who was based in the late 1800's in Huron County.Ohio. I have been researching him since I am studying Bowles of Ohio. One of my other ancestors Issac C. Burr was a baptist minister and they did seem to move around a fair amount to accomodate the needs of the church.

G. W. Richardson commenced preaching in a log cabin on section 27, belonging to A. W. Richardson's estate, in the fall of 1867. He continued to preach at intervals in that vicinity until the church was organized. The organization of the Labette Baptist church took place on (or about) July 25, 1870, at the residence of R. K. Jones, with the following members: Elder, G. W. Richardson; R. K. Jones, Martha Jones, Victoria Jones, and John Richardson. It was not until 1877 that a house was erected by the church. Before that meetings were held in various places, but principally in the hall or school-house. Quite a portion of the time the church has been without a pastor. The following is a list of those who have served as pastors: G. W. Richardson till 1879, J. W. Sage two years, C. T. Floyd six months, F. M. Bowman sixteen months, C. J. Bowles one year, E. Estes one year, J. T. Crawford two months in his vacation, J. W. Jones one year, W. T. Jackson, J. R. Alexande! r, T. M. Cooper and W. R. Newman. On June 7, 1900, the church building was blown to atoms by a tornado that swept over the county. The church soon went to work to erect a new building, and are now just completing it at a cost of about $1,300. Randi Bowles-Meentzen

HEARST. Reports of damage by the floods of last Sunday night are coming in. Big River was higher than it has been for years, and has not subsided enough to show the full extent of damages. At Blackwell, it is said, the river was so deep over the railroad, that trains could not pass. There was a tie-up of trains anyway, caused by a wash-out of a trestle down near Sabula, Iron County, where a cattle train was ditched. It was at first reported that the entire train crew was lost, but later reports are that only one man was drowned, and we have not learned his name. So far we have not heard of any county bridge being washed away, but the roads have suffered from all the streams, not having been graded up to withstand such floods. All farmers along all the streams, have suffered more or less. At Victoira, the creek was past fording, from Sunday noon till Tuesday morning. Judge MADISON got to the county seat by stopping off at Hematite and getting a horse, while Judge DONNELL did not get here till Tuesday.

G. W. Richardson commenced preaching in a log cabin on section 27, belonging to A. W. Richardson's estate, in the fall of 1867. He continued to preach at intervals in that vicinity until the church was organized. The organization of the Labette Baptist church took place on (or about) July 25, 1870, at the residence of R. K. Jones, with the following members: Elder, G. W. Richardson; R. K. Jones, Martha Jones, Victoria Jones, and John Richardson. It was not until 1877 that a house was erected by the church. Before that meetings were held in various places, but principally in the hall or school-house. Quite a portion of the time the church has been without a pastor. The following is a list of those who have served as pastors: G. W. Richardson till 1879, J. W. Sage two years, C. T. Floyd six months, F. M. Bowman sixteen months, C. J. Bowles one year, E. Estes one year, J. T. Crawford two months in his vacation, J. W. Jones one year, W. T. Jackson, J. R. Alexande! r, T. M. Cooper and W. R. Newman. On June 7, 1900, the church building was blown to atoms by a tornado that swept over the county. The church soon went to work to erect a new building, and are now just completing it at a cost of about $1,300.
