As you have got his birth, his parents, his marriage and wife, and his death - what other information were you hoping for?

[Jonmar]

 Sorry I should have put this in my original posting. He was registered and Baptised as Jack Lowe but for some reason he used his Fathers name.We believe when he died he had a daughter whose name we do not know, we  would like to know if there are any surviving family members.

There is a marriage in Horncastle, Oct/Nov/Dec 1890 (ref 7a 1067) of a John Bradshaw Lowe.

Cant be him if he was born 1891.

Brides are Rebecca Smith or Mary Elizabeth Southwell

Looks as if wife was Rebecca (Smith) as they are on 1891 census, no children

By 1901 they have 6 children including 9 year old Jack.

I think that Jack 's parents were John Bradshaw Lowe and Rebecca nee Smith

And here is his birth:

Jul/Sug/Sep 1891
Horncastle ref 7a 536
Jack Lowe

Hi,

Looks like the marriage that Lizdb found is his parents marriage. I have just found the following on freebmd:

Lowe, Jack B to Hartshorne, Milly; September Qtr 1916; Basford; Volume 7b Page 314

Can't see any births at all for the marriage.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

David

Dad dies in 1928

Probate index entry -
John Bradshaw Lowe of Horncastle Lincolnshire died 13 Feb 1928 Probate Lincoln 2 March to Rebecca Lowe widow

Might be worth getting the Will in case any grandchild (child of Jack) is mentioned?

Hopefully it would at least mention any of JAcks numerous siblings - unless it is all left to wife Rebecca of course.
