(Elcainer) "Caner " Lowery and he was b. 01 Nov 1867 d. 11 Jun 19108; buried in Dodge Co, and married to Estelle Scruggs. Jeremiah M. Lowery was a son of Andrew Lowery and Angelany Loftin. Jeremiah M. was considerably older -- b. 18 Oct 1822 and d. 05 Dec 1893; buried in Lowery family cemetery in Laurens County. My husband and I have been to the cemetery there and seen the graves. In the booklet by Edsel Joiner entitled, Family Connections Around Sugar Creek, he states that "William Elcainer Lowery was born in Laurens County (1850 Census , Telfair) about 1815. " He furthers says "Andrew J. Lowery who married Susannah Studstill, once lived near him (Caner) in Telfair County and might have been a brother." The thing that has confused many researchers is information from a book on Dodge county history that says Caner Lowery came from Ireland. There has never been any evidence from census records (of William E. and Nancy) that he was born anywhere but GA. It is possible from the time frame involved that William Elcainer "Caner" Lowery could be the unknown son of Andrew and Angelany. I wish there was more information available in the earlier census before 1850. It could answer alot of questions.

I'm sure this is the same family who is related to Bryan and Cora Lowery from the 1900 Telfair Census. I'm picking up a few more pieces about this family, so hopefully it won't be long til we can have a fuller picture, and link them back to their Lowery ancestors. Looking forward to learning about the siblings of India Lowery Cooper. Jan

He is an elderly gentlemen who still lives in Milan, GA., and is the son of Eli Jackson "Tobe" Lowery and Mary Vaugh. Anyway, I just got off the phone with him, and he said his grandparents were ELI JACKSON LOWERY and SUSAN STUDSTILL ! I asked him if his father (aka "Tobe") was a junior, and he said "YES!" I questioned again, "Was his name Elijah or Eli?" He clearly said, "Eli Jackson Lowery". Don't know why "Andrew" pops up with Susan on the 1860 census. He said "Andrew" was another Lowery...not his grandfather. Could be a mistake of the census taker. Eli was killed in the Civil War. These records may clarify some of this infor for us. Jan

If the family was Scottish, there is a possibility that two siblings could have the same name. There was a specific way that they named their children after certain ancestors so it is possible that two children by the same parents had the same name if two ancestors had the same name. Pat Hurst

Never let it be said that genealogy is dull!! I guess that Susan Georgia is Susanan Studstill Lowery, but I suppose it's possible that there was a Lowery who died and a female relative, either Mother who had remarried or a married sister or daughter with the last name Georgia filed on the estate, but that's a little far fethced. Could Susanan Studstill's middle name be Georgia? I wonder if legal records for that period of time in Telfair would have a record of the settlement of the estate. The J E is another puzzle, could he be a son and Susanah was getting guardianship of her grandchildren? Bernice

I see he is listed as Andrew in the 1860 census you mentioned. When one researcher proclaimed the name was ELIJAH ANDREW JACKSON LOWERY, I figured they must have some verification of the entire name. (Be assured I'm certainly not pointing a finger at anyone! We're all trying to put these pieces together of the Lowery families in the Milan area of Telfair County, GA) When I found the Eli J. on the 1850 Laurens census it seemed to make sense. He was Eli in the earlier census, but perhaps nicknamed "Andy" or Andrew later. Do I have him with the wrong parents? I couldn't imagine Andrew Lowery and Angelany Loftin having two sons named Andrew. The 1850 Laurens census had the Eli J. This same Lowery man and his wife, Susan Studstill had one son named William A. J. (Andrew Jackson?) Lowery who married Permelia Cobb, and also a son, Eli Jackson "Tobe" Lowery who married Mary Vaughn (there seem to be two of these ladies who married Lowerys). Here's what I have listed for his family. Please correct me if I'm wrong: Elijah Andrew Jackson Lowery (b. abt 1828-1830; d. civil war bet 1862-1865?) m. 28 Sep 1853 Telfair co, Ga to Susan Studstill. Children: 1. Tabitha Lowery 2. William A. J. Lowery (1910 Telfair) Census - m. Permelia Cobb 3. Eli Jackson "Tobe" Lowery (2 Jan 1861 - 05 Nov 1932) m. Mary Vaughn. 4. Joseph Lowery 5. Jonathan Lowery It is really his son, Joseph Lowery that I'm trying to find out more about. I think he is my missing link. Is this Joseph Oliver or Oliver Joseph? I think he must have died before 1900 leaving the "widow Ann" and several children. Does anyone know anything about him? One elderly gentlemen I spoke to by phone recently who still lives in Milan, said he thought Joseph and Jonathan either died or moved out of the area. I think Joseph had a son Oliver J. who is listed in the 1900 Telfair census with the widow Ann, and then in the 1910 Telfair Census he is head of household with his siblings. A Dodge County Book has Oliver J. Lowery from Rhine who served in WWI. I could use some help. These Lowery families in Milan, GA are related to either the Lowery's from Laurens County (Andrew Lowery and Angelany Loftin), OR else the line of William E. "Caner" (Elcainer) Lowery and Nancy Helen Malloy who ended up on Dodge County.

Would they have two sons by the name of Andrew? Here's the problem I show with that: 1850 Laurens Co, GA census lists: LOWERY, Andrew age 65 Farmer (est.

He was married 03 Nov 1846 to Malinda (or Matilda) E. McLendon. Jeremiah M. Lowery was also a son, b. 18 Oct 1822. Do not have the date he married Mary Ameri Vaughn, but also must have been before the 1850 Census. Since the 1850 census has him listed as ELI J. Lowery, and they already had a son named Andrew Lowery (Andrew Lawson), it would seem Eli Jackson Lowery is correct. Do you have access to an 1860 Census for this family? Is he listed as Andrew or Eli? Since he was killed in the civil war, was he listed as Andrew or Elijah? There are many Andrews in this Lowery family, so it's easy to get them confused. Someone else has him listed as Elijah Andrew Jackson Lowery. What civil or Bible records do we have to verify either name? I would really appreciate some help on this. Jan
