Hi Tammie
I believe that year for Calvin and Lettitia's marriageis 1838.Most researchers agree that Calvin is the son of Jesse Lowe
Calvin is first found in the 1840 Tazewell co census.
In 1850, Calvin and Lettitia have the following children:
Austin, age 10
Valentine, age 8
Nancy age 6
Martha age 3
Joseph age 1
1870 Tazewell census
they have 3 more children
Rueben P age 15
Richard Whitt age 13
Jefferson Davis, age 9
By 1880, Calvin nor Lettitia are in the census and the youngest son Jefferson D. is living with his older brother, Joseph Lowe and his wife Malissa.
Calvin was born abt 1818.
JOseph Low, son of Calvin was married twice, second time to a Robinette . He was widowed , she was single.
Austin Low, son of Calvin, died March 24, 1865, age 24. He had been living in Smyth Co at the time. Tazewell Co Death register, page 22, line 56.
Calvin and Lettitia had a son , James G. Low,who died at age 4 of pneumonia. He was born in 1854 died July 18, 1858.
I haven't looked up Nancy or Martha's marriage yet but will soon.
Jefferson D. Low married Nancy Hobbs; d/0 Samuel and Charlotte Gross Hobbs in 1887. He is living with his brother Richard W. Lowe in the 1900 census , widowed, and remarries, July 26, 1901 to Nancy Jane Maxwell, he is a widower and she is a widow, both age 40. bk 3, pg 146, line 149
Need to find my notes on Joseph, cant remember Melissa's maiden name off the top of my head.
Richard Whitt Lowe married Margaret Bishop, Aug 18, 1884.
I have not found anything on Valentine Lowe as yet. He may have been in Smyth Co with Austin.
There is a Rebecca Lowe listed in birth records for Calvin and Lettitia in 1860, but she isn't listed in 1870.I have not found a death record for her as yet.
Well, this is what I have so far for Calvin and LEttitia.
Barbara
