I seek help in finding details of Thomas Bowden, born Cork 1839-1840, who married Julia Unknown. His son was Rev John Bowden, Catholic priest.

After emigration to New Zealand, they had 4 children from 1864 to 1872. He died in New Zealand in July 1920 at 81 years.

I have failed to find a birth and marriage record from Irish ancestry resources, and no marriage record in New Zealand, nor an immigration record to New Zealand.

 

The genealogical record to date can be found at wikitree  - www.wikitree.com/wiki/Bowden-3948

  • Thanks. But that does not look like a good match.  My search continues.
