释义 |
He was the son of Admiral Sir George Bowyer, 5th Baronet, and his second wife Henrietta Brett, daughter of Admiral Sir Piercy Brett,[2] and was born at Radley Hall in Berkshire.[3] In 1800, he succeeded his father as baronet.[1] Bowyer was educated at Christ Church, Oxford, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 1804 and a Master of Arts in 1807.[4] At the 1807 general election, Bowyer was elected in the Tory interest as a Member of Parliament (MP) for Malmesbury,[5] a seat which he held until his resignation in 1810[6] by appointment as Steward of the Manor of East Hendred.[7] He returned to Parliament the following year as a Whig, when he was elected at an unopposed by-election in June 1811 as the MP for Abingdon, following the resignation of Henry Bowyer.[8][9] He was re-elected in 1812, defeating his Tory opponent by a margin of 112 votes to 11,[8] and held the seat until the 1818 general election.[10] In 1815, financial difficulties forced him to sell the contents of Radley Hall.[11] As a consequence, he moved with his family to Italy, converting to Roman Catholicism in 1850.[11] On 19 November 1808, he married Anne Hammond Douglas, oldest daughter of Captain Sir Andrew Snape Douglas.[12] They had three sons and a daughter.[13] DeathBowyer died at Dresden in Germany, but was buried at Radley. He was succeeded in both baronetcies successively by his sons George and William.[3] HonoursBowyer was a Knight of the Venerable Order of Saint John (KStJ), a Knight Grand Cross of the Order of St. Gregory the Great (GCSG) and a Knight Commander of the Order of Pius IX (KCPO).[14] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.leighrayment.com/baronetage/baronetsB4.htm | title = Leigh Rayment - Baronetage|accessdate=29 March 2009}} {{s-start}}{{s-par|uk}}{{s-bef| before = Robert Ladbroke 2. ^{{cite book|last=Burke|first=John|title = A Genealogical and Heraldic History of the Peerage and Baronetage of the British Empire|publisher=Henry Colburn and Richard Bentley|location=London, UK|volume=vol.
