Email sent to manager of profile dated 01/28/20 Hi, I hope I'm correct in saying that I suspect this could be Sir James William Lowry (27 Dec 1601-22 Nov 1661). My Ancestry tree shows him being born in Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland and passing away in County Tyrone, Ireland. He married Isabel Brissenden Braickine (1600-1659) in about 1622-1624 at Perthshire, Scotland. He and Isabel were my 9th great grandparents.

Hope this helps, David L Wallace Houston Thank you to David L. Wallace.
