Lady Maria Bowlby
Lady Maria Bowlby widow of Major-General Anthony Bowlby owned Combe House during the war and died in the Village.
In May 2014 a Yorkshire man Tom Brown and his wife called at Combe House when we were not there and told our tenants living in the Cottage that his Grandmother Lady Maria Bowlby widow of Major-General Anthony Bowlby had owned the house.He sent us an interesting email and photos (below) about the Bowlby family.

(She is not buried in Stinchcombe Churchyard but likely to be with her husband in the family cemetery at Brookwood Woking)
