Hi

There is an entry in the index for St Helier Births, 2nd July 1912 to 6th Jun  1914, volume 55, page 95 for GFEB.

As Bowden is an unusual name for Jersey, I then searched for any other births between 1912 and 1919. I came up with (all St Helier):

Madeline, 6th Jun 1914 to 2nd Sept 1916, volume 56, page 68.
Mavis Lilian, 2nd Jul 1912 to 6th Jun 1916, volume 55, page 95
Arthur Ernest, 4th Sept 1916 to 28th Aug 1919, volume 57, page 47
Jack Leslie, 4th Sept 1916 to 28th Aug 1919, volume 57, page 48
