1 Victor Spencer Bowater Liveryman and Other Members of the Bowater Family Victor Spencer Bowater joined the Glovers Company as a Liveryman in 1915 and remained on the Livery until he died in 1967, and participated as a member for 52 years! He was born on 24 th May 1891 at Normanhurst, Upper Grove, South Norwood and was the eldest of 6 children to Sir Thomas Vansittart and Emily Margaret Spencer. His elder brothers were Rainald, born in 1888, Thomas Dudley Blennerhassett Bowater, born in 1889 and he had two younger sisters, Elsie M, born in 1893, Doris M, born in 1896 and another brother Leslie F, born in William Vansittart Bowater His grandfather was William Vansittart Bowater was born on 15 th March 1838 and was the founder of Bowater, which became one of the world s largest producers of newspaper print. Having trained as a manager with James Wrigley in print paper manufacturing in Manchester, Bowater decided to establish himself in business as a paper agent in The business supplied the newsprint for both the Daily Mail and the Daily Chronicle. He died on 28 th April 1907.
2 St Thomas Vansittart Bowater His father was Sir Thomas Vansittart Bowater who was born on 20 th October 1862 at Cheetham Hill, Manchester, the eldest in a family of seven sons and two daughters of William Vansittart Bowater ( ), paper merchant and agent, and his wife, Eliza Jane, daughter of Thomas Davey of Islington, London, whom he had married in They lived at Bury Hill, in Lower Edmonton, North London. Around 1880 the family moved back to London, and he joined the family business. Sir Thomas married, on 8 th June 1887, Emily Margaret ( ), daughter of John Spencer of Croydon, with whom he had four sons and two daughters. In 1889 Thomas Bowater (and two brothers) became partners in W V Bowater & Sons. As the buying agents from around 1890 for Alfred and Harold Harmsworth, the company was closely connected with the largest and most successful of all the mass-market publishers and flourished accordingly. From at least 1904, Bowater had left his two younger brothers (Frank and Frederick) to run the business while he devoted most of his time to public life in the City of London. He was elected as one of the City s two Sheriffs and at the end of his term he received a knighthood (June 1906). In 1907 he was elected as Alderman of Castle Baynard, a position he occupied until In Bowater sat as Lord Mayor of London and soon after (16 th July 1914) he was created a Baronet. He was known as Baron Bowater of Hill Crest, Croydon. He also stood as an Independent Conservative in the City of London by-election in 1922 and was narrowly defeated. However, in 1924, he became a Conservative MP for the City of London until his death on 28 th March Sir Thomas s younger brother Frank held the same office at the outbreak of the Second World War ( ) and so Victor had huge pride in knowing his father and uncle were both Lord Mayors of London, when he was aged 22 and 47. Major Sir Frank H Bowater ( ) was born in Cheetham Hill, Manchester on 3 rd April He, like his older brother Sir Thomas, was educated at Broughton College, Manchester. He was a Major in the 4 th London Howitzer Brigade, Royal Field Artillery (T.F.), during the period of the war commanded a battery in France. He was created a Baronet in 1939 and was known as Baron Bowater of Friston in the County of Suffolk. His mother company was as a Girdler. His son Sir Noel Vansittart Bowater ( ), 2 nd Baronet became Lord Mayor in 1953 to 1954 and he was a Vintner. His younger brother Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Ian Frank Bowater ( ) also became Lord Mayor of London from 1969 to 1970 and he was a Haberdasher.
3 Sir Noel Vansittart Bowater Sir Ian Frank Bowater Sir Eric Vansittart Bowater ( ) was the son of Sir Frederick Bowater and Dame Alice Bowater. His father was one of the three brothers who were partners in W.V. Bowater & Sons. Eric Bowater, a grandson of the founder entered the firm in He brought about a resolution of the serious problems at constructing a paper mill at Northfleet and this achievement was his stepping stone to the leadership of the firm. At the age of just 32, Eric became Chairman and Managing Director of W.V. Bowater & Son and was the leading figure in the firm for the following three and a half decades. He dominated Bowater s affairs by sheer force of personality. He died at his home at Dene Place in West Horsley, Surrey on 30 th August 1962 and was survived by his wife Margaret Vivian Bowater and her two daughters and one son. Sir Eric Vansittart Bowater Victor was living at Fritton Lodge, 44 Howard Road, Woodside with his four brothers and two sisters. By the 1911 Census he was living at Hill Crest, Brownlow Road, Croydon, still with all five siblings at that address. Victor Spencer Bowater was admitted to Whitgift School on 19 th January 1903 and left in April 1905 his two elder
4 brothers had also gone to Whitgift School. However, he was readmitted to the school on 3 rd May 1906 and left in Christmas On October 31st 1912 Victor Spencer Bowater of Hill Crest, Croydon, clerk, was admitted as a Freeman of the City of London by redemption, son of Sir Thomas Vansittart Bowater of 159 Queen Victoria Street. He served as a Lieutenant and then Captain with 2 nd Battalion 4 th London Regiment in World War I. In 1915 Victor joined the Livery of the Glovers Company and remained a member until he died in Victor married Hilda Mary Potter, daughter of W. Henry Potter on 8 th February 1917 in the Croydon district. They had a son John Vansittart Bowater who was born on 6 th January 1918, who later became the 4 th Baronet. Hilda died on 11 th August 1918 at Dunnybrook, Sefton Road, Addiscombe. Victor obtained a Grant of Adminstration to her estate and was described as a Film Dealer. She left him 1,853 10s 8d. Victor remarried Louise Mountjoy née Lunnon, a widow, in the September quarter 1919 in the Croydon of District. Victor moved around quite a bit, having lived in 1926 at 3 Clyde Street, Kensington and by 1928 had moved to Guildford. He lived at five different addresses in Guildford between 1928 and Victor then moved to the West Midlands and died in Solihull Hospital aged 76 of a stroke whilst residing at 88 Greswolde Road, Solihull on 10 th September Victor had one son call Sir John Vansittart who was born on 6 th April He married Joan Kathleen Scullard on 20 th October He died aged 90 on 24 th April He fought in the Second World War in the Royal Artillery and succeeded to inheriting the title of 4 th Baronet Bowater of Hill Crest, Croydon on 3 rd March He lived at 214 Runnymede Avenue, Bearwood, Bournemouth, Hampshire. Sir John s eldest son Sir Michael Patrick Bowater, 5 th Baronet is the head of the family today, aged 66. Sir Thomas Vansittart Bowater left 74,195 4s 1d to his three sons, Sir Rainald, Thomas Dudley and Sir Frank Henry Bowater. Sir Frank Henry Bowater Baronet of the Warren, Friston, Suffolk left 80,232 14s 2d to his two sons Sir Noel Vansittart and Sir Ian Frank Bowater. Conclusion Victor came from a very privileged and entrepreneurial family and although he played no part in working in the family business saw his family's wealth spiral ever upwards throughout his 76 years. He was content to live life as a gentleman and by all accounts enjoy life to the full. It was remarkable that the City of London appointed four members of his family to be Lord Mayors' of London, a feat that has not been matched in recent times. The Glovers' Company were indeed fortunate to have Victor as a Liveryman whilst his eminent relatives reached the highest positions running the City of London. In researching this article I was unable to find a picture of Victor but was able to find photographs of his family.
