Gloucestershire / Re: Hendersons of Bristol: Driving me crazy
« on: Monday 02 November 20 18:10 GMT (UK)  »
I wonder if Derbyshire All Saints is a mistake. There are several All Saints parishes in Derbyshire. Maybe it should be Derby All Saints, which has been Derby Cathedral since 1927.

Here's a site I recommend, The Bristol & Gloucestershire Archaeological Society. You can search their past publications.

There's Anthony Henderson, jeweller and goldsmith, apprentice of Nathaniel Nangle, jeweller and goldsmith, in 1748, son of Samuel Henderson of All Saints, Derbyshire, linen draper

Samuel Henderson, sheriff 1803-4, president of Anchor 1806, died February 21, 1821

If you google

site:http://aalt.law.uh.edu/indices/cp40indices/ "bowreman, james"

or

site:http://aalt.law.uh.edu/indices/cp40indices/ "bowerman, james"

You will find several Common Pleas entries with James Bowerman or Bowreman.

For example:
Bowerman, James, of Henyocke, Devon, merchant, executrix of; (Bowerman, Isabel, widow)

It is indeed Common Recovery (here is the entry in Common Pleas). Below is the link from AALT so you can see the whole entry.

The part at the end has Thomas Chapman (a fictitious person) withdrawing in contempt and making default, so that Richard, John, William, etc "recover" seisin.

Kent / Re: Pre 1841 Census documents for Thanet / Kingsgate
« on: Tuesday 20 October 20 06:00 BST (UK)  »
As far as I know, the pre-1841 census was only a headcount, without names. Before that there may be census-like records such as militia lists and tax rolls. For example for Bucks there's a good militia list called the Posse Comitatus of 1797 from the Bucks Records Society. For Kent there's the hearth tax of 1664:
