Exchequer and Audit Office records at the Public Record Office, Kew.
Class AO12 contains documents originating from the British Government such as decisions and grants.
Class AO13 contains the original depositions and claims sent from Nova Scotia with afidavits from New Jersey.
AO12 volume 109 is a large account book recording payments to Loyalists. Two lines refer to Bowlbys, Richard and Edward. They have just a single line each acrooss two pages of the book so it is not possible to photocopy.
I seem to have trouble sending emails in columns so I am not going to try. The descriptions are the column headings.
