Re: search for Bowles/Boyle by Linda Boyle Lang I have an ancestress named Elizabeth Bowles who was born (probably in Bedford) in 1793/94. She was married to Abram Fuqua (son of Joseph Fuqua Revolutionary patriot of some renown in Bedford) on 21 Aug 1817. She died 11 Sept. 1854 in Bedford. One of her daughters was Mary (Frances?) Fuqua who married Jesse W. McDaniel. She died by 1875. All of these events happened in Bedford. I don't know if this is the same as Elizabeth Boyle that you reference as having been born in 1794. I have never known Elizabeth's father's or mother's names. Cheryl Hummer Chesapeake, VA
