        History

        David Shannon Bowlby was a Canadian lawyer and former Crown Attorney for Waterloo County. Bowlby was born in Berlin (now Kitchener), Ontario January 24, 1874. His father, David Sovereign, was a prominent physician and surgeon. Bowlby attended the University of Toronto graduating with a B.A. in 1895, and an LL.B. in 1896. He was called to the bar in 1898 and practiced law in Ontario and Saskatchewan for several years before being appointed Crown Attorney for Waterloo County in 1917. He took over the role following the death of his uncle Ward H. Bowlby. His nephew, W. P. Clement, took over as Crown Attorney in 1934, after which time Bowlby continued practicing law locally. Outside of his professional duties, Bowlby was an avid golfer and a member of St. John's Anglican Church. He married Lillian Barnes in 1904 and together they raised two children. Bowlby died at his home of a heart attack on October 11, 1938.
