Boling / Bowling families descend from Jarrett Bowling, who was born on January 18, 1762 in Stafford Co. Virginia. He is not related to the Charles City County Boling family. He was the son of Benjamin Bowling of St. Paul's Parish, King George Co., Virginia, grandson of Benjamin Bowling of the same parish. Elke Elke, Thanks for reply. This is not my line. I was just passing along info. I hope your input helps someone. I am sure that info is not well known. Good luck in your searches. Neda
