ESTHER, wife of JOHN POWELL, was also therefore an aunt of THOMAS BOWLES; and the cousins, ANN, DORCAS BATTERS, and DIANA, were also her children, since they were not Mary Smith's children. This is from first post refering to Thomas Bowles Will 1718. This is claiming that Thomas Bowles cousins Ann, Dorcas Batters, and Diana are children of ESTHER, wife of JOHN POWELL. Not so. They are the children of John Waite, Henry Bowles half brother. Dorcas had married Thomas Batters. Leathel,
