RESEARCH NOTES
- Some information from another researcher after visiting Headcorn, England in 2001.
- 16! children listed, 2 with descendants

- There are 2 Willilam Boormans, both born about the same year, both married a Mary:
1) William Boorman (1757-1825) m Mary Bowles (1763-1827), 1 Jan 1783 Staplehurst; 12 children listed; William s/o John boorman (1727-1807) and Elizabeth Mockett (1733-1800)
AND
2) William Boorman (1757-1836) m Mary Copping (1768-1848),2 Oct 1787 Biddenden; 5 children listed; Willliam s/o Thomas Boorman (1722-1797) and Elizabeth Badcock (1723-1801)

- Another source has William #2 who married Copping with 4 children (attributed to #1 above), s/o Thomas Boorman & Elizabeth ???. Parents of father Thomas are different: John Boorman (b Staplehurst) and Ester Meopham (b Sutton Valence) - reportedly married 9 Jul 1695 St Margarets Canterbury) - rather than William Boorman and Sarah Chapman
On 1 Jan 1783 when William was 26, he married Mary BOWLES (213) , daughter of Thomas BOWLES & Sarah BOORMAN (160), in Staplehurst, Kent, England. Born on 9 Jan 1763 in Staplehurst, Kent, England. Mary died on 24 May 1827; she was 64. Buried in 1827 in Headcorn Baptist Church Burial Ground, Headcorn, Kent, England.

- Staplehurst Kent baptism index:
BOWLES Mary D Thomas Sarah 9 Jan 1763 Birth date - entered end of book.

- Mary died in 1827, age 64 and was buried at Headcorn


RESEARCH NOTES
- originally entered Mary Bowles 1762-1827, no sources listed
- there is a christening for Mary Bowles on 12 May 1761 in Snaith, York England - IGI batch I03269-4 - wrong location
- If this marriage is correct, William Boorman is a first cousin of Mary Bowles (her mother Sarah Boorman was the sister of John Boorman, William’s father; both are the granchildren of William Boorman and Sarah Chapman)
- One of the brothers of John Boorman (who married Mary Colgate, sister of Robert Colgate) reportedly married Mary Bowles, sister of Sarah Bowles who married Robert Colgate. John Boorman reportedly had 3 brothers (Thomas, Richard, Robert) but we have this Mary Bowles marrying a William Boorman (who had brothers Thomas, John, Samuel). We have William’s brother John b 1754 (compared to 1748) and marrying a Mary Dence in London (both died in Kent)…. Not everything adds up here, but who is right?
