Biography

Callie Edwards was born on January 28, 1866 to Miles and Sarah Edwards. (Death record lists father as Miles O. Edwards instead of Miles A. Edwards).

On January 10, 1906 at age 39, she married Charles V. Lowrance (or Lorance). Marriage record states CV was 45 years old. His parents were S.N. and Harriet Lowrance.

The 1940 Census lists Callie Lowrance of Mountain Creek Township, Catawba County, North Carolina as a 74 year old widowed farmer, head of household. Beneath her name is her "wife" Charles Lowrance, age 30. I suspect that Charles is her son.

Callie's nickname is confirmed by niece Carolyn Edwards Titterington. Callie had a son, Charles Vance Lowrance (1909-1978)
