jeanpeeters — 2012-04-29 10:19:45Z

Sorry it took so long to answer you. Yes this information helped me a great deal.I had worked so hard on my Dad's information and then found relatives. My Dad was Harry Winkler Lowrey who passed away in 1951. My Mother was Phyllis Ballam and passed in 2005.They had divorced when I was less than i year old and I wan't to know about him and his family. I think my Dad's father was Calvin Lee and wife Sarah McNab.

"free person of color" was not an incorrect reference used by the government, "person of color" doesnt just refer to blacks it applies to anyone who is not white, so Indians, asians, or any other race that was not pure caucasion would be correctly described as a "person of color" as well as blacks.

bearfootimages — 2012-03-15 14:43:13Z

Hi Ernie. Haven't I met you at one of Grandad's birthday celebrations? I am married to Richard, Leah's son. Anyway, I've done more research, and even found the census records for 1880 Census, Antrim, Watonwan County, Minnesota, filled out by Alonzo W. Lowry with info on his family, but can't go back in the Lowry line any further than Joel Lowry (born approximately 1765) and wife Mary Elizabeth. I've had more success with the Walbridge line, getting to Henry Walbridge (1665-1729) and found lots of fascinating reading of his family and their involvement in the life of early Norwich,Connecticut. Can you add to any of this? You can email me at bearfootimages@gmail.com
Thanks! Marti

She married her cousin Andrew Jackson Lowrey (1837-1909, son of Anthony Lowrey and Mary Ann Childrous). Family lore says that she was native american but I haven't seen any documentation of that fact. Permelia is my 2x great-grandmother, and her daughter Mary Luella is my great grandmother.

Thanks in advance.

Re: ALONZO LOWRY FAMILY

bearfootimages — 2012-01-23 04:53:50Z

Hello. I am researching the Alonzo Walbridge Lowry family. Alonzo was my husband's great great grandfather. Alonzo's son, Andrew Adolphus Lowry (1869-1951) was my husband's great grandfather, and Andrew's son, Alvin L. Lowry, was my husband's grandfather. Alvin (born 5/18/1904) died at the age of 103 in Colbert, Washington on 9/30/2007. I am so hoping that this email thread is still current, as I would love to find out more about this part of the family. I can tell you that we have audio tapes of Grandad (Alvin Lowry) telling stories of his father's (Andrew A. Lowry) life as a true-life Western cowboy. Thank you for any information you can give me.

Are you the M Lowrey in touch with my brother Gene Lee? My mom, Margaret Shirley Lee is the granddaughter of Mark Lowrey. Gene just sent me an article about M J Lowrey who murdered a Mr. Piccolo in 1922 in a drunken rage reportedly. Looking for any history regarding the charges, outcome of the charges and any history on Lowreys.

Re: information on lowrey ancestors

SharPlescia57 — 2012-01-18 17:06:07Z

I believe you may be in touch with my brother Gene Lee at some point as he just sent me an article on MJ Lowry (correct spelling Lowery) who murdered a Mr. Piccilo in a drunken rage. Wondering of the outcome of the trial and if he was charged (hanged, life in prison, etc.) My mother was Margaret Shirley Lee and her mother was Imogene Lowrey/Lee. Mom died in 2006 of Lou Gehrig's disease and I buried her with Imogene in 2009 at Twin Rivers Cemetary in Missouri

I am also interested in the Lowry name. My GGGgrandmother was Sarah Jane Lowry/Lawrie and her husband served in the Civil War with a outfit from Brady's Bend. I have also found my GGGgrandfathers name and Hugh Lowry serving in a Jefferson County outfit. I am really grasping at straws. Do you have any information you can share?

Enoch Lowrt is my ancestor. Following is his bio:

From LAND OF OUR FATHERS. History of Clark Co Kentucky Volume I by A. Goff Bedford and Vol II THE PROUD LAND ,History of Clark Co Kentucky by A. Goff Bedford

page 134-----Vol II

In 1800 Enoch LOWRY was granted a license to keep a tavern. He lived in the Vienna area. Walter Goode appeared on the scene in 1842. In 1840 the Karrick tavern was located on the Winchester-Irvine Road at the ferry. There was a good deal of traffic to Estill springs which was a popular resort. This was a popular stopping place and also the poll for that part of the county for elections.

Note: also info from VOL I. Vienna was virtually wiped out by a flood in 1880. Another previous terrible flood (Red and Kentucky Rivers plus Lulligrud Creek area) also tragically hit and destroyed much of the area in 1817. (as reported by the Log Lick Correspondent to the DEMOCRAT February 25 1880.

In 1800, he was listed in the tax rolls for Clark County, Kentucky.

For the 1810 census he was with his wife and eight children in Madison Township, Madison County, Kentucky. This census also shows Enoch owning 7 slaves.

January 12, 1815
Enoch gave permission for his daughter Elizabeth to marry William Kelly in Madison Co., Kentucky.

Hello, hopefully you'll still get this. My wife's grandmother is an Edith Lowrey. Edith's father is a John Lowrey born in Pittsburgh (I think) around 1900. I'm pretty sure I have him linked to his father, which is a John Lowrey born in Brady's Bend, Armstrong, PA around 1858. Unfortunately, that is all the information that I have on them, other than eventually the family moved to Akron, Ohio where the elder John Lowrey died. Would love to hear back.

Looking for probably a "country store" on the outskirts of Pembroke that was owned by a Mr. Lowry related to the "Indian" Lowrys.

My grandfather, Sydney Flowers Clark 1889-1967 born Clarkton, Bladen County, ran the store from about 1952-1959. I understand he lived there as well.

Planning to come to NC and would like to find it.

Any help on location of store greatly appreciated.

You're very welcome. Also, as further proof of the connection, Adam and Parthena are on the same 1880 census page as Adam's older brother Levi and Levi's daughter, Tennessee.

My brother-in-law, Atherton Clark Lowry, is a descendant of George Marion Dallas Lowry. My nephew, Atherton Clark Matthew Lowry has been researching for a while. He's in touch with Nellie (LowryLines creator)and cousins around the U.S.

The big question outstanding is John "Crip" Lowry's birth and immigration info.
