Post by: flintgirl on Sunday 07 November 21 15:29 GMT (UK)
Researching my Gt Grandmothers family, her maiden name was ELIZABETH LOWE, her parents names were THOMAS LOWE and HARRIET PERRY.  They were married in Birmingham in December 1852. Thomas Lowe being 25 a Bachelor and tube drawer son of THOMAS LOWE, brass founder. Harriet was 18 years old, a Spinster, father was JOHN PERRY, a Waggoner.  They moved to Salford but later returned to Birmingham.

Thomas and Harriet appeared on the 1861 Census for Salford, Lancashire.

JOHN LOWE.       son  5                                                 ditto.

Would be interested to hear from anyone who is researching the same lines or get any details on the PERRY family which have proved difficult or the LOWE family. Thanking you.
