I don't know if this is your Bowles or not. But I hope this helps. I am looking for the parents of Jame T Bowles, I found my 5th Great Grandfather Charles P King , in his household as grandfather.In the 1880 census. I am also looking for the burial place or cemetery of Charles P King.I believe it to be in Hart County. James T Bowles's wife was Mary E. Bowles.
