[email address removed] Robert Bowman, Senior, is the original colonist founder of a Virginia line of Bowmans settled originally in the Bermuda Hundred, then Henrico County and now Chesterfield County. One line of descent preserved the story that Robert arrived during the very early days of the Virginia colony as a ship's carpenter.Robert or his son Robert Jr. established a plantation known as Rocksdale or Roxdale by 1670. From this base the family spread to other parts of Virginia and adjoining colonies and states. Associated Virginia names appear to include GILBERT, ROYALL, SUTTON, SHERROD/SHERWOOD, SHEPHERD, VINCENT, PLEASANT, COCKE, COOK, FARMER, KNIBB, HUDSON, COSBY, FORE/FORD, McHAN, HARRILL. My line stems from William Bowman (1755-1808)and Mary Cosby who married Dec. 28, 1779 in Goochland County, Va., and who came to Rutherford County, NC about 1795. I am researching: BOWMAN, COSBY, MCHAN, HARRILL, ROLLINS, MORRISON, FORD, PASTEUR, RICHARDSON, YOUNG, SUTTLE, BAXTER, BERRYHILL, BRIDGES, HAMRICK, MCBRAYER, STREET, DELLINGER, WACASTER, RINEHART, HULL, ANTHONY, BEAM, REYNOLDS, KISER, STROUP, BLACK, VAUGHAN, MELTON, SMITH, HAINS, WHISNANT, and others. I am eager to hear from other Bowman researchers who might be working on this family or one of its many branches. I look forward to exchanging information with newly discovered cousins.
