LOWE posted by Cynpowers@aol.com on Tuesday, April 15, 1997

I am looking for any information on my Grandmother Eva Gay LOWE. I recently found out she may have been born in Roane Co. She was born In 1899 in either Sept. or Oct. She alway celebrated her birthday on Oct 19th but Social Security Death index list's it as Sept. 19th. The only thing I know is she was from a large family (maybe as many as 17-19 bothers and sisters) though I believe they were mostly if not totaly bothers.Any help would be great. Thank you,
