James Bevan Bowen (1828 – 14 November 1905) was a Welsh politician, Conservative Member of Parliament for Pembrokeshire from 1866 to 1868 and again from 1876 yo 1880.〔‘BOWEN, James Bevan’, Who Was Who, A & C Black, an imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing plc, 1920–2007; online edn, Oxford University Press, Dec 2007 (accessed 30 Nov 2013 )〕 He won a by-election in 1866, caused by the death of the sitting member George Lort Phillips, which was unopposed by the Liberals. However, he lost his candidacy for the 1868 general election in favour of John Scourfield, who had been the member for Haverfordwest since 1852, which fell to the Liberals. Scourfield died in 1876, and Bowen won his second by-election to his old seat. He lost the seat at the next general election in 1880 to the Liberal William Davies. In 1889 he was defeated in the inaugural elections for Pembrokeshire County Council, but was subsequently made an alderman. His son was George Bevan Bowen. == References == 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「James Bevan Bowen (MP)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
