===================================================================== Match: Bowles Source: SOUTH-AFRICA-IMMIGRANTS-BRITISH-L@rootsweb.com From: "Pat Bailes" <patbailes@border.co.za> Subject: Re: [ZA-IB] DYASON 1820 Settler at the Battle of Trafalgar I would like to ask a favour. In searching through the history of the Kariega Baptist church I have come across various descriptions of Richard Bowles' military career. He was in the military. He served in the Royal Navy. He served at Trafalgar. He was on HMS Victory. I would appreciate you checking to see if he features in your records. I would like to get him correctly placed in the history of the church as he was one of the early movers and shakers.

If so you may like to have a short story about Richard. Let me know.
