Early lifeThe second son of John and Sarah Bowden, he was born in Parramatta, New South Wales, where his family had resided for four generations. Educated at Newington College (1882-1884)[1] and Sydney Boys High School (1888–92),[2] he qualified as a solicitor in 1894 after serving articles with his father. Four years later married Reinetta May Murphy.[3] Political careerIn the Federal election of December 1906, and while serving as an alderman in Granville, he won the seat of Nepean. In 1910 he was defeated and again practised in partnership with his father until 1919 when he regained the seat of Nepean as a Nationalist. From 1922 he represented Parramatta after Nepean was absorbed by that seat. From 1923 Bowden served as Minister for Defence, resigning in 1925 due to ill health. He served on, and at times chaired, the joint select committee on electoral law in 1926 and 1927 and was a royal commissioner on the constitution between 1927 and 1929. In the 1929 election he lost his seat.[3] References1. ^Newington College Register of Past Students 1863-1998 (Syd, 1999) pp18 {{s-start}}{{s-off}}{{succession box | title=Minister for Defence | before=Walter Massy-Greene| after= Neville Howse| years=1923–1925}}{{s-par|au}}{{s-new|division}}{{s-ttl|title=Member for Nepean|years=1906–1910}}{{s-aft|after=George Cann}}{{s-bef|before=Richard Orchard}}{{s-ttl|title=Member for Nepean|years=1919–1922}}{{s-non|reason=Division abolished}}{{s-bef|before=Herbert Pratten}}{{s-ttl|title=Member for Parramatta|years=1922–1929}}{{s-aft|after=Albert Rowe}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Bowden, Eric Kendall}}2. ^http://www.shsobu.org.au/wp-content/uploads/mps.pdf 3. ^1 {{cite web | first=John | last=McCarthy | title =Bowden, Eric Kendall (1871 - 1931) | publisher =Australian National University | work=Australian Dictionary of Biography | url =http://www.adb.online.anu.edu.au/biogs/A070368b.htm | accessdate = 2007-05-16}} 12 : 1871 births|1931 deaths|Members of the Australian House of Representatives|Members of the Australian House of Representatives for Nepean|Members of the Australian House of Representatives for Parramatta|People educated at Newington College|Australian Methodists|Nationalist Party of Australia members of the Parliament of Australia|Free Trade Party members of the Parliament of Australia|Commonwealth Liberal Party members of the Parliament of Australia|Defence ministers of Australia|20th-century Australian politicians |
