Frank Bowman, Bill Jenvey, John Dawkins

Given that Frank Ernest Bowman, Flying Officer W.M. "Bill" Jenvey and John Dawkins were all Australians and involved in African Hunting I thought that this may be the place to dredge up some information on them.

Bowman was a professional hunter how at times guided Ruark when Harry Selby was unavailable. He later retired, possibly with the closure of hunting in Kenya, and returned to Australia.

Bill Jenvey's .450/500 Holland Royal (?) was listed for sale in a London Guns (?) catalogue here in Australia in the late 70's (?).

John Dawkins hunted with Pondoro Taylor and was a pastoralist in South Australia (?).

Ruark visited Australia. Did he visit Bowman on a pastoral property ???

All good information to start with.

Does anyone have any information on these gents?.
