John Frederick Lowe and Mary Ann Sawyer
paraphrased from their biography by Peter J. Roberts, my fifth cousin.
John, born about 1810, was the son of James (Jimmy) Lowe and Elizabeth Jane (Jinnie) Curry. He passed away before 1860.
John Lowe and Mary Sawyer had ten children born between the years 1830-1858 at Abaco, seven sons and three daughters. All their children eventually moved to Key West, Florida, with the exception of Jeremiah Duncan 'Dunc' Lowe, born in 1844, their fifth child and third son, who remained in the Bahamas. He was the great-grandfather of Joy Lowe Jossi.
My great-grandfather Samuel Lowe, their sixth child and fourth son, was born in 1845.
John Frederick and Mary Sawyer Lowe had a plantation at Conch Rocks, Abaco. From their Green Turtle Cay home, they sailed across to the mainland. There they would walk northwest past Blackwood, Fire Road. Near Cooper's Town was Conch Rocks, with a sheltered bay area. Conch Rocks faced Powell Cay on the northeast side of Abaco.
