As has probably been mentioned in your other threads, the way to find out if any GR member has your people in their trees is to look at "Search all member trees" under "Search" at the top right of this page.
You're asking about William Stowell, but giving details of Alice. Does that mean that you don't know who William's parents/siblings were?

Picking one of those Stowell/Barnes children, again at random:
Victor Anthony Stowell
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Death Index, 1916-2007
Name: Victor Anthony Stowell
Death Age: 57
Birth Date: 15 Oct 1944
Registration Date: Oct 2001

He married in Bristol in 1965, and had a daughter the same year.
The daughter married in Bristol in 1987, and had two sons.
In 2018, per ER, she was living in Bristol, with one of her sons .
The house does not seem to have been sold since then, so they may still be there.
The daughter is on Facebook, as Stowell.
She's just one of a possibly very large number of living descendants of William Stowell and Alice, judging by the number of children in each generation.
