Biography

Mary Ann (uncertain middle name) "Mollie" Lowery-Lowry (as was often spelled) was the daughter of Thomas Richardson Lowery and Sarah Jane Nicholson. Note: Mary's middle name was most likely Ann, however no record has anything but " A. " listed. The oldest record being the 1860 census below. All the marriage records show Mary "C" and the death certificate of one son William shows Mary Catherine Lowry as his mother. This was reported by a daughter-in-law, so it is unknown if it is correct or not. Using the Wiki tree rule of going by the oldest record, and have marked it uncertian.
