William David Lowry

"...William D. Lowry, was born and reared in Tennessee, but in early life moved to Missouri, and was subsequently engaged in general farming in this state [Missouri] until his death, in 1892, at the age of three score and ten years.  He was a man of sterling integrity, independent in politics, and a conscientious member of the Baptist church.  He married, in Greene county, Missouri, Margaret Killingworth, who was born in Tennessee.  She survived him several years, passing away at the venerable age of eighty-four years.  She too, was a faithful member of the Baptist church, and like her husband, was held in high respect and esteem throughout the community.  She left three children, as follows:  George B....; Mrs. M. E. Hornback , of Phoenix, Arizona; and Mrs. Allie Bradley, of Union township."
