Sunniside Local History Society The Bowes family's connection with the county of Durham had begun in the middle of the fourteenth century with Adam Bowes' acquisition of the lordship of Streatlam in the south of the county and for five centuries the family played a notable role in public life. Until 1713 the basis of the Bowes' influence was the estate and castle of Streatlam, but after that date the acquisition of the Gibside estate gave them an influence in the north of the county and a share in the immense wealth which was to be acquired from the coal trade. Like his grandfather, George Bowes, he loved Gibside and employed John Dobson to remove the third storey of the Hall in 1805 and adorn the South Front with a high battle mounted parapet pierced with huge crosses. www.sunnisidelocalhistorysociety.co.uk /bowes.html

Royal Lineage The Bowes were a family of ancient and honourable descent, Sir Robert Bowes being Elizabeth I's ambassador to Scotland from 1577 to 1583. This higher rank of peerage in some way redressed the wrong done to the Lyon family by James V. The 2nd Earl of Kinghorne, it is said, 'coming to his inheritance the wealthiest peer in Scotland, he left it the poorest'. His son, Patrick Lyon, was created a peer of Parliament in 1445 as Lord Glamis after being released by the English who had held him hostage for King James I of Scots. www.geocities.com /capitolhill/4793/adf.html   (241 words)

Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother Her family name is Bowes-Lyon, and the lions in the 1st and 4th quarters are for the Lyon family, obviously based on the Scottish arms, and the 2nd and 3rd quarters are ermine, with 3 bows (palewise) for Bowes. Part of the marriage settlement was that John should adopt a new surname, Bowes Lyon, and that his children would bear the quartered arms (I believe he himself bore both arms per pale as normal for a husband and wife). For example the Lyons are related through marriage to the Grahams (Dukes of Montrose), the Keiths (Earls Marischal), the Grays (Barons Gray) and the Scrymgeours (Earls of Dundee). flagspot.net /flags/gb-qeqm.html   (241 words)
