Hi My name is Debbie (nee Bowden) I am related to William Best who had a son RIchard Best who married Bridget Mary and had Martha who married Josiah Bowden. Would this be the same family?
I have only been able to research as far back at Richard but believe his father was William. They came out from Ireland is that right?
