Bowman & Williams

Shaping
Santa Cruz Since 1908

1902 After starting his career with the Southern Pacific Railroad expansion projects throughout western California, in 1908 Lloyd Bowman begins his civil engineering and land surveying practice in Santa Cruz.

1938 Tom Polk Williams, Jr. graduates from UC and is hired as a civil engineer by Arnold Baldwin, a private engineer and soon-to-be appointed County Surveyor for Santa Cruz County Department of Public Works.

1945 Lloyd Bowman and Tom Polk Williams, Jr. establish Bowman & Williams Civil Engineers and Land Surveyors.

2007 Bowman & Williams merges with Dunbar and Craig Land Surveying, bringing a larger depth of knowledge and records to every surveying project.

2019 Bowman & Williams expands ownership, adding two new partners and transitioning to a new mode of operation with expanded online capabilities.
