JESSE SCOTT LOWE-DORA BELL SMITH LAWSON LOWE
I am looking for information on my great grandparents. Jesse Scott Lowe b. November 08, 1880 d.June 13, 1958.He was married first to Julia Priscilla Row(e) and then later to my great grandmother, Dora Bell Smith.My Grandmother, May Bell Lowe's birth certificate show's her mother's last name as Lawson and her death certificate shows it as Smith. I have heard that she had two older half sisters, Dorothy and Irene by her mother's first husband and am wondering if that was his last name.I found an old letter from one of those sister's whose married name was Dorothy McDaniel.In the 1930 Census Fred and Marie Brinkman are shown living in East Alton, Madison, Illinois with a Julia Lowe, daughter of Jesse and Julia Priscilla Lowe. Family lore was that Jesse and Dora had another younger daughter than May, Jean.Family is that when Dora Lowe died in 1934 that Marie and her husband were given Jean to raise. My grandmother never saw those sisters ever again.Any help in finding more information about my family would be greatly appreciated.I have family photos to share and can be contacted directly at [email protected]
