I am a direct decendant of Edward Bowlen born 1825 and Bridget Ryan born 1827. They are my Great Great Grandparents.  Edward Bowlen's son Edward Timothy Bowlen married Ellen Maria McInerney and had a  daughter, Margaret Ellen Bowlen who was my grandmother and who died in 1951. I am 75 years of age.  Please reply.

Thank you for your reply. It would appear that you and my wife are related. My wife is the daughter of John Patrick Bowlen, the son of John James Bowlan (note diferent spelling) and Mary Gleeson. John James and Edward Timothy were brothers.
From my records I note that the family of Margaret Ellen settled in Queensland around Charters Towers, are you also a Queenslander? I live in Victoria.
Would really like to hear from you again. I prefer to use normal email, find it easier than this, so if you contact me via (*) I would very much appreciate that.
Regards
Brian
