Judy, I don't expect there is a connection but I have a great grandfather Jasper Percival Fowler, who was born in Leith, Scotland in 1857. He came to Victoria, BC on HMS Triumph in 1879. Jasper left the Royal Navy and took a position with Robert Dunsmuir as his master mechanic on the Esquimalt and Naniamo Railway. He married Elizabeth Phipps and they had four children, 2 of which died in infancy. The son Humphrey Arthur Fowler moved to Tacoma to apprentice as a pharmacist. I had heard anecdotal information that for many years there was a Fowler Pharmacy in Tacoma but I have no hard facts. I just thought I would ask if you knew of such an establishment in Tacoma. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judith McRae" <free2bejudi@yahoo.com> To: <FOWLER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2004 6:48 AM Subject: [FOWLER] Fowlers from England > Since this mailing list has become active again I > would like to inquire if anyone has connections to the > Fowlers in and around Buckinghamshire and Bedford > England. > > My Great Grandfather George STIMSON b. abt. 1852 in > Old Bradwell, Buckinghamshire, England; married an > Elizabeth FOWLER in Heath and Reach, Bedford, England > on December 26, 1873.

Hi Rick, I just pulled up the 1901 Victoria, BC Census and Jasper claims to have been born in England not Scotland on Mar 16, 1857....Did Elizabeth die before then? He is married to an Emily born Aug 20, 1862 in BC and has 2 children...Hazel Rose born Jun 12, 1899 and Humphrey born Feb 10, 1882... There is another Jasper Fowler born Apr 19, 1855 also in England living as a boarder in Nanaimo Denise ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rick Baker" <ricbaker@shaw.ca> To: <FOWLER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2004 11:18 PM Subject: Re: [FOWLER] Fowlers from England > Judy, > I don't expect there is a connection but I have a great grandfather Jasper > Percival Fowler, who was born in Leith, Scotland in 1857.
