The son of John Jr and Ann (Carter) Bowater of England, Thomas married:

1) Sarah Edge on 4 Oct 1686 in Edgemont, Chester Co PA; she died 1692.
2) Widow Frances (Lambe) Barnet in Feb 1703 in Concord Twp, Chester Co PA.

Children with Sarah:
1) Sarah C Bowater (1688-1765), m: John Jacob Beals Jr.

No known children with Frances.

Thomas immigrated from England in 1683, joining the Friends Meeting House in Philadelphia, certificate dated in England, Mar 14, 1683. To pay his passage to America, Thomas indentured himself to Francis Fincher. According to the manifest of th e ship "Bristol Comfort", "Tho. Bowater out of Worcestershire, servant to francis fincher out of Woster City, glover, for three years."

In 1695 Thomas purchase 100 acres of land in Edgmont, Ridley Creek PA.

John Bowater Jr was a Quaker minister. He married:

1) Ann Carter in abt 1650 in Spitalfields, White Chapel, London, England. She died on 25 Feb 1679 in England.
2) Frances Corbet in abt 1681 in England.

Children with Ann:
1) Thomas Bowater (1655-1705), m1: Sarah Edge, m2: Frances Lambe.

Children with Frances:
1) Ann Bowater I (1684-1685)
2) Mary Bowater, m: Stephen Ailes.
3) William Bowater (1686-1686)
4) Elizabeth Bowater (1688-1740), m: William Pusey.
5) John Bowater III, (twin) died aged abt 12 yrs.
6) Ann Bowater II (twin), m: William Chandler.
7) Alice Bowater, m1: Jacob Pyle, m2: Moses Mendenhall.
8) Phebe Bowater, m: Shadrack Scarlet.

John immigrated to America in 1677. His first wife Ann remained in England with their son and she died 2 years later. John seems to have returned to England because he may have spent the years 1681-1683 in prison for his religous beliefs.

Son Thomas arrived in America in 1683. John and his new wife Frances, left for America in May or June the next year. On 21 May 1684, at the Dudley MH in Worcestershire England, John and wife Frances received certificates to transfer to the Phila delphia Meeting House in America.

John and Frances presented their certificates to the Friends MM at the Governor's House in Philadelphia on 4 Nov 1684. Their first child, Ann I, was born a few weeks later. She lived to be 3 months old. A third child, William, appears to have be en born premature and most likely died soon after birth.

On 7 May 1688, John, Frances and their only surviving children, Mary [second child] and Elizabeth [fourth child], joined the Chester PA MH.

John established the Bowater Friends Meeting House at his home in Nether Providence, Middletown Twp, Chester Co PA. Although a new church was built in 1700 on land belonging to Joshua Hastings, adjacent to John Bowater's land, the new church mai ntained the name of Bowater Friends MH. Active in both church and community, John served on church committees and Grand Juries.

John died at his farm in Middletown Twp, Chester Co PA on 4 Nov 1704. His Will, written on 20 Jul 1704, was proved on 17 Nov 1705 in Weston, Chester Co. The Will mentions wife Frances and five daughters.

John is my 8th paternal Gr-Grandfather through his son Thomas Bowater Sr (1655-1705). This research is still very much on-going; new information will be added and existing information is still being documented. 
Bowater, John Jr. (I6162)
 
636 From: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=82761589
The daughter of Francis Carter of Bromsgrove, Worchester England, Ann married John Bowater Jr abt 1650 in Spitalfields Hamlet, White Chapel, London England. They had at least one son.

No other children of this couple are known at this time. In 1677, Ann stayed behind in England while her husband, a Quaker minister, traveled to America. He may still have been in Virginia, when she died two years later.

Ann is said to be buried at the North Friends Burying Ground in Warwickshire, England. However, this is still being verified. She is my 8th paternal Gr-Grandmother through her son Thomas Bowater (1655-1705).

Sarah transferred back to York Co PA, on a certificate dated 25 Apr 1748. She was accompanied by her son Bowater Beals, who had married Sarah Cook, daughter of Thomas Sr and Mary (Underwood) Cook. Mary is a daughter of Alexander Underwood.

Another record shows Alexander at the Monacacy Friends MH in MD on 7 Feb 1745, requesting permission to marry Sarah Beals, widow of John Beals.

Sarah is recorded on 12 Sep 1761, when she was succeeded as "overseer". She died a few years later, aged abt 77 yrs. Alexander died in 1767, not mentioning Sarah in his Will, an indication of her death prior to his.

Henry Alexander left Cass County, Ind., early in the 40's and went to Cedar County, Mo., expecting to make that state his future home, but it was to o new, Indians were too numerous and sickness and other ills combined drove him back to Indiana again in six years. He came into Rochester just as the old court house was being finished.
