  • Notes 
    • Comment by Jay Moore, Jan. 2000:

      I have a photocopy of the article, "The Bowlby Family. An Interesting Sketch of Traditional History by Dr. A. Bowlby" and attached to it is a note, written in a hand I don't recognize, appearing to be from someone from the family. In it, he or she has described a number of errors made by Dr. A. Bowlby, the author of the article. The first states "Adam Bowlby's grandfather was Richard Bowlby, not John." However, when I compare the dates, it appears logical that John WAS his grandfather after all. This will require further confirmation.
