Grandma Katie's Ancestors And DNA

Based upon DNA submitted by my brother at Family Tree DNA and a fortunate match with Grandma Katie's nephew's daughter (through Pearl Johnson, Grandma Katie's sister, and Robert Logan, Pearl's son), I was able to select persons who matched both my brother and Pearl's granddaughter, and make the assumption that those persons had a mutual ancestor(s) somewhere in Grandma Katie's family tree (as opposed to the Powers (paternal) tree or the Garrett (my maternal grandfather's) family tree).

Who Was William T. J. Lowe?

From the Buffalo, New York, 1884 City Directory

William T. J. Lowe was a fishing lure manufacturer.  He married Minerva Lucinda Stearns.  Minerva married 1st Eugene Cramer and had 2 children.  In 1919 he was referred to as the "late W. T. J. Lowe."

In the 1860 Buffalo City Directory, Wm. T. J. Lowe was a silversmith.

In the 1900 census, William T. Lowe, born July 1840, a fish hook manufacturer, was living at 1119 West Avenue, Buffalo, Erie County, New York, with his wife, Minnie (b. Sept. 1842), and son Harry (b. Jan. 1880) who was also a fish hook manufacturer.  William was born in New York; his father was born in England and his mother was born in Canada.

In 1905 the Lowe family was still living on West Avenue; living with them was William Lowe's step-son, Eugene Cramer, an artist. 

Was William T. J. Lowe, the fishing lure manufacturer, the brother of Louisa (Lowe) Wirth?  Louisa was my grandkids' ancestor.  She married John Wirth and moved to Detroit, Michigan.

Revolutionary War Veterans In The News

After diligent research, Aquilla Lowe & James Scott were recognized an honored as Revolutionary War veterans.

The name Aquilla Lowe got my attention since one of my ancestors, Aquilla Greer, had married Elizabeth Lowe. Aquilla Lowe is mentioned on the Lowes of Gunpowder Road, Maryland, website, a site that also mentions my Aquilla & Elizabeth (Lowe) Greer, but it was unclear to me if Aquilla Lowe belongs to those Lowes.

It's always good to recognize the Revolutionary War veterans and to see a researcher's hard work rewarded.
