Biography

Uriah was born in 1761.

He married Maria Gilbert.

From the Florida Historical Quarterly: "The graves in the churchyard are those of John M. Bowden, born at Mandarin 1790, died 1871, and of his wife Mary Ann Bowden, born 1790, died 1861, indicating that the church lot had been a part of the Uriah Bowden grant. According to Spanish land grant records, the claim of 200 acres on southside of St. Johns River at San Antonio granted to Uriah Bowden in 1815 was confirmed to his son Moses Bowden, with the note that John Moses Bowden, two year old son of Uriah and Maria Gilbert Bowden, was baptized in 1793 by the vicar of parochial church in St. Augustine. Undoubtedly this is the John M. Bowden buried in the churchyard."[1]

He passed away in 1815.[2]
