Hi Annie In case you haven't received a reply regarding the Lowe family. If you search the web site at http://www.mullgenealogy.co.uk you'll find your William Lowe his wife Mary Ann McLachlan (my sp) in 1891 at Aros Bridge SLN, Mary Ann and children in 1901 Salen Rd. SLN. As this is more modern information that about all I can offer in the way of assistance. ? was your Mary Ann the daughter of Donald Mclachlan & Isabel Duff.

Certainly when we visited in 1957/8 when I was about 9 years old I think that was the name of the cottge. The sea lapped at the bottom of the garden and we collected milk in jugs from the churns. Bella's sister, Elizabeth - Bessie - was my mother's mother. The surname was Lowe. Could you help me find out more ? We re hoping to visit in the summer > >Annie Beighton > >------------------------------- >To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to SCT-ISLEOFMULL-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
