Did You Know?
- Thomas Ellis Bowhill married Emily Dear at St Paul Deptford in 1867; George James Bowhill, who I strongly suspect was Thomas's uncle, married Elizabeth Bernardes there in 1868.
- Mary Gibson was listed as a widow in the 1861 and 1871 censuses; her husband George James Bowhill was described as a widower when he married Elizabeth Bernardes in 1868. I presume their relationship had broken down sometime in the mid-1850s, which was when Mary's son Richard Bowhill was born.
- In 1861 Margaret Bowhill and her son Thomas Bates were living in Neptune Street in Rotherhithe. Neptune Street was about half a mile from Osprey Street, where George James Bowhill (who I suspect was Margaret's nephew) was living in 1881. All three of them had also lived in Monkwearmouth in Durham.
