DOWLE family (General)

by Philippa, Wednesday, January 24, 2007, 04:32 (6515 days ago)

Hi

Does anyone have any information on this family?

I have an Annie Dowle b 1813 who married Geroge Frowen in Oct 1838. Her parents were William Dowle and Anne Hankins.

Later on I have a Benjamin Dowle b 1833 who married Elizabeth Frowen in 1869.

I would be interested to see how/if these two are realted.

Many thanks

Philippa

Hi Philippa

Do you have any Dowle's earlier than this, I have a Margaret Dowle born about 1677 who is one of my 7 times great grandparents and a Thomas Dowle of about the same age. I have no other Dowle's in my family tree.

Sorry Jim I don't.

I can only find Benjamin in the 1881 cenus and I have information from another source that he married again after Elizabeth died (? date). With regard to Annie, again I can only find her on the 1881 cenus and in the parish records.

Thanks, I found loads of people connected to this family (Hawkins and Constant)now through census and the parish records, I know I am not directly related to them, but I like to see how people fit into the bigger picture.

Intersting how the name changes from Dowler to Dowle!

Thanks again for your help, just need to see if I can make the connection between Benjamin and Annie now.
