About Jack Lowe
Picture 1 Jack and Ann Lowe
Jack Lowe (age 25) and Ann Whirly (age 20) were united in marriage in 1870, in Westmoreland County, Virginia. Into this union six sons and four daughters were born. All children are deceased.
Thanks to the Almighty God, Jack Lowe's family has come along way from slaves to masters of their own destiny. We have no record of his birth other than the grave marker listing 1835. If the information about his age and year of marriage is correct we can put his year of birth as 1845. Some have it that he came from Georgia to Westmoreland by way of the Potomac River and settled around Peggy Tone.
In the Westmoreland County History book he is not listed as a free man which means that he was a slave. He constantly reminded his children that his brother was sold into slavery and never seen again, and he had a sister that was beaten to death by her master.
Jack fought in the Civil War against slavery. When he returned from the war he settled in Tucker Hill, Virginia near Carey's Corner in the Cople District. It is stated that he received a rather large lump pension for his Military Service. He made wise use of it by purchasing approximately sixty acres of land and built a home for his family.
Jack Lowe reared his children in a Christian home, so all of them became members of Zion Baptist Church Tucker Hill, Virginia or Bethlehem Baptist Church Penllyn, Pennsylvania. Some were Deacon's, Trustees, and Choir Members. Jeremiah Lowe was ordained as a Minister of the Gospel. Jack's children knew that it was better to "be a doorkeeper in the house of God than to dwell in the tents of the wicked" - Psalms 84:10
(This information comes from the 1988 family reunion booklet and was taken from the Book of Marriages number 1853 page 41)

A.Maria N Lowe.
We (the family) do not know anything about her, but we believe that she is Emma, Rosa Lowe's mother.
B.Jeremiah Lowe "Jerry" (married) Lucinda Wilson Lowe
Jerry Lowe and Lucinda Wilson Lowe were united in marriage in the State of Pennsylvania in 1902. To this union three sons and five daughters were born. They celebrated their Golden Anniversary in 1952 and had many happy years thereafter.
After Jerry passed on the children agreed to let Jerry's granddaughter Tertia Mae Gordon Holmes purchase the home, the same home that she had grew up in. The house on Walnut Avenue in Penllyn, Pa., is still considered the family home and on special occasions family and friends gather there for a feast and to be reminded of "Home Sweet home". When ever the Lowe's of Virginia go to Penllyn they must pay a visit to Uncle Jerry's home.
To this union 8 children were born, Madora, Clarence, Edith, Ezra, Ralph, Elizabeth, Emma Jane and Gertrude
