Bowman, Forbush.—Attention is drawn to the fact that the Westborough, Mass., Vital Records give the marriage of James Bowman and Thankful Forbush on 16 Mar. 1731, and the births of all the children of James and Thankful.
In Bond's History of Watertown, this marriage and these children are credited to Juseph Bowman, the elder brother, both sons of Joseph,3 Francis,2 Nathaniel.1 Mr. F. C. Pierce in his Forbush Genealogy, 1892, page 25, copies Bond's statement.
The folio wing papers were found in the Worcester probate records:
1. Administration on estate of James Bowman of Westborough; bond dated 15 Feb. 1762; his son Joseph appointed administrator; no mention of widow.
2. Guardianship of Thankful, daughter of James Bowman, aged 11 years; bond is dated 28 April 1704; Solomon Mathis guardian.
These seem to corroborate the statement that it was James and not Joseph Bowman who married Thankful Forbush. Solomon Mathis married, in 1758, Lydia, the eldest daughter of James and Thankful (Forbush) Bowman. Thankful Forbush, daughter of James Bowman, was born in Westborough 17 April 1753, which would make her 11 years old in 1764. The administration papers show that both James and his wife died previous to 15 Feb. 1742.
