Re: BOWELL, John; Suff.ENG>CAN; c. 1830 Are you aware that Mackenzie Bowell, born Rickinghall, England 27 Dec 1823, died Ontario 10 Dec 1917 was Prime Minister of Canada 21 Dec 1894 to 27 Apr 1896? He had 4 sons and 5 daughters and married Harriet Moore in 1847. Emigrated to Canada in 1832 See eg http://www.cyber-north.com/public/bowell.htm http://www.nlc-bnc.ca/eppp-archive/100/200/301/nlc/canspeak-ef/english/mb/bio.htm http://www.canadianprimeministers.com/mba.html http://encarta.msn.com/index/conciseindex/47/047A4000.htm Not one of my Bowells thus far and unlikely to be, mine came from Wooton in Berkshire but did migrate to London in late 1800's.
