I was just wondering if anyone had any information on a Bowhay/Bowhey family in Devon.
I have it back to William Bowhay born about 1786, died Dec 26 1848 in Stoke Gabriel.
He married Mary Rich (born 1785 Stoke Gabriel, Died July 5th 1859 Totnes union Workhouse, he Father is Samuel Rich, mother is Susanna Mason)
They had 3 Children. George b 1807, William b 1810 and John (1812-1846). My roots are through John. I show John was a Mariner so figure perhaps his father was as well, but do not know.
Any help or information would be appreciated.
