William Bowsher *completed*
« on: Thursday 15 October 09 18:50 UTC (UK) »

Does anyone have any census data from 1891 or later on the household of William Bowsher (born around 1850 in Eastbury, Berkshire) and his wife Mary (born in Chilton, Wiltshire)?  In 1881 they were living in Speen, Berkshire, and had a one year old son, William.
Thank you for your help!

Yes, the William H. Bowsher living with the Morgan family certainly fits.  Looks like one my Bowshers (all ag labs) finally married into some money!  I am assuming that "living on their own means" means that they are independently wealthy (or at least comfortable).
