I am seeking information on John Low(e) and his sons Jacob, (maybe) Abraham, and (maybe) John. They came to Jefferson Co TN circa 1800 from the Shenandoah Valley of VA. John was born circa 1760-70. His sons were born in the 1790's. Son Jacob married Eliza Rodgers/Rogers in Knox county in 1816. They allegedly lived at some time near Dandridge.

Intersting! My husband's Bennett family has been hard to trace. The earliest we have so far is his great-grandfather William Lafollott Bennett born 1866 died 1934. He lived in Hamilton County, TN. His grandfather was Benjamin "Ben" Franklin Bennett born 31 August 1889 died March 1971 who lived in Hamilton County, TN. I wonder if it is possible that you family and ours are connected.
