While I believe that I can help with your specific question, her is a DOW Website: http://steve.dow.net/roots.htm . There is a small piece about the preacher, Lorenzo Dow. http://www.hampton.lib.nh.us/genealog/index.htm Lane Library, Hampton, New Hamphshire (This is a good reference library for families such as Dow, Bacheller, Hussey, Sandburn and others that resided around Hampton, NH. There is information about a number of DOW family members; and this website has been here for sometime. I descend fro Henry Dow, the first Dow to America;and I descend from the Connecticut branch, many of whom lived in Windham County, CT. The "Book of Dow" (c)1929 by Robert P. Dow: This book has a cumbersome labelling system. I do have a copy. My GG-Grandmother was Orra Dow of Sterling, Windham County, CT m. John Gallup Windham County, CT. The name "Orra" is a family name, that I also bear as Orrie for a middle name. My father was Orrin and his mother was Orra/"Orrie" Emilie Greene, Griswold, New London County, CT. Enjoy the DOW Website!
