The Bowles of Dublin

While the individual family lines may never be sorted out, there were definitely Bowles in Dublin from at least the early 1600's.

A branch of my own Bowles of Ballickmoyler, co. Laois settled here in the early 1800's. see Robert Bowles of Ballickmoyler and Dublin

I have also researched one Bowles family in Dublin which may yet prove to be the origin of my line in Ireland prior to their move to Ballickmoyler. With a slight twist of family fortune they might also have ended up owning what is now the Guinness Brewery. See Thomas Bowles and Family of Dublin

One line which I have traced back to Tipperary later settled in Dublin where there are still descendants today. See Walter Bowles, a gardener of Tipperary, Wales, Carlow and Dublin

There was a Robert Bowles and also an Alicia Bowles who lived on Clarendon Street in Dublin and who died there in 1880 and 1884 respectively. This was a Catholic couple who baptized sons Robert in 1844 at St. Andrew's Church and John (Oct. 24, 1854) at Sts. Michael and John Church, both in Dublin.

Further Bowles in Dublin notes are in progress.
