Notes
- Billie Girardeau, in his Ancestry World Tree on the Lowerys andMullinaxes(http://awtc.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:2324130&id=I510293360) reports Thomas Lowery's wife as Sarah Richardson, rather thanSarah Wilkie. Richardson is Sarah's married name from her firstmarriage. Yvette McClung reports in her McClung-Jacobson Family Tree(http://awtc.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=yrmcclung&id=I0954), that Sarah was married to a Richardson before she married ThomasLowery. I have found no record of children from the first marriage,nor the first name of her husband surnamed Richardson.

This transcription of the date as 1780 is from the printout of acomputer database. It is quite possible that the handwritten 1786 wasmisread and entered into the computer as 1780. Another recordindicates the uncertainty of the lst number of the year.
