Margaret Campbell Lowe married William Hillian Rice on 12th Aug 1907 in Leswalt, Wigtownshire. They had two children as far as I am aware, Mary Ann Rice and William Rice. I do not know whether it was William jnr or snr who was the footballer. Debee who has posted on here is the grand-daughter of Mary Ann Rice. Margaret died on 9th June 1913 aged 26 years old. My great grandmother was the sister of Margaret.

Hi All
I know this is a long time since this post was made but I have recently discovered more about my real dad's ancestry which is linked into the family you are all discussing.
My great grandmother was Rachel Lowe, born 20th July 1894 and died in 1985. She gave birth to my grandfather in 1932 but as far as I know, never married his father. She went on to marry in 1943 to George McDowall who died in 1976.
Rachel's parents were Thomas Hamilton Lowe and Annie Forsyth.
There are also 3 other siblings that haven't already been mentioned. Rachel had a twin also named Thomas, who died aged 1 month. There was also James Lowe born in 1899 and Catherine Lowe born 1902.
I know names and dates, etc. but I don't know anything more so if anyone has anymore info that would give me an idea of who my great grandmother Rachel was, or even her parents, I'd be really grateful.
Regards

Tyrone / O'Brien in Coalisland, Co Tyrone
« on: Wednesday 15 December 10 15:53 GMT (UK) »
Hello
I was hoping someone may be able to help me. I am trying to find out about my paternal grandmother's family who came from Ireland. I have been estranged from my father all my life so have no-one to ask!
I have obtained my grandmother's death cert which says she was born on 12th Feb 1922 in Coalisland, Co Tyrone (I had always been led to believe the family was from Donegal).
Her name was Mary Ann O'Brien. I do not have her birth cert, however, I have her marriage cert to James Lowe in Scotland (1953)which states that her father was Barney O'Brien and mother was Mary (possible maiden name) Casey. It says her father was a shopkeeper.
The witnesses addresses are listed as being in Donegal on her marriage cert so I am wondering if she was born in Tyrone and then the family moved to Donegal.
Also, Barney could possibly be Bernard, as I my uncle (one of Mary's sons) is called Barney and his real name is Bernard.
If anyone has any info on her parents, birth or anything connected with my grandmother I would be ever so grateful, I live in England so it is hard for me to find info.
Thank you
