THE LOWES

Our account of the early pioneers would hardly be complete without giving short
sketches of several families who figured conspicuously in the settlement of 
"Lower Doughty" during the early 20's of the last century.  One of these was 
that of Conrad Lowe and wife Margaret.  His father, Mark [sic *] Lowe, was born
and lived in eastern Pa. during the revolutionary war period, probably serving
as a soldier part of this time.  After the war, he and his family migrated 
to Westmoreland County Pa.  Here the subject of our sketch, Conrad Lowe, was born
in the year 1793 and his wife Margaret was born in 1794.  Three of their children
were Jacob, George and Polly.  In the spring of 1824, they sold their land in Pa.
and migrated to Doughty Valley and settled on a 160 a. tract lying on the south
bank of the creek and drained largely by a branch of Oak Valley creek, a southern
tributary of Doughty.  One of his sons, Jacob, who was born in Pa. in 1817 
married Catherine Lint in 1838.  Upon the death of his father in 1848, he and 
his family took over the old homestead and resided there until his death in 1888.
Soon after, one of his sons in law, Adam Fraelich, purchasedd the farm and lived
there during his life time.  It is now owned and occuped by an Amish family.  
The above Jacob and Catherine Lowe became the parents of thirteen children, 
all of whom grew to man and womanhood and married and raised families.  Their 
names and marriages are as follows:  Samuel, married Ottilo Frederick; Moses,
Margaret Lautenschleger; Conrad, Elizabeth McCauslin; Henry, Hannah Cox; Jacob,
Emma Jane Hall; Elizabeth, George Lautenschleger; Catherine, Jacob D. Lower; 
Leah, Adam Fralich; Margaret, John Strock; Amanda, Henry Lower; Polly, Don Lower;
John, Mary Ann Sheneman; and George, May Lower.  Another brother of Jacob Lowe Sr.
George, purchased the 100 a. tract now owned and occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Giauque,
which he later sold to J.J. Conrad and moved to the Salem church community northwest
of Clark.  Nearly all of the Lowes in the Salem-Killbuck communities are descendants
of this family.  A cousin of the above brothers made a settlement on [a] 160 acre
tract east of the Oak Hill Church and lived there during his lifetime.  His name 
was Adam Lowe.

THE CONRADS

John Jacob Conrad... married Mary Lowe in the year, 1809.  Mary Lowe was a daughter
of Mark [sic *] Lowe and a sister of Conrad Lowe whose names have previously 
appeared in this sketch.

* note Mary and Conrad were children of Henry Lowe, not Mark.
