Elizabeth Stuart Bowdler

d. 10 May 1797, Bath

Wife to Thomas Bowdler. Although Bishop Gordon (pp. 2124-2125) denies Forbes's speculation that Elizabeth Bowdler was the author of The Song of Solomon Paraphrased (Edinburgh: Drummond; London: W. Hay, 1775), the New York Public Library catalogue attributes the work to her (ODNB).
