Now I've searched census for other Lowd*ns born Harrington and there don't seem to be any. Harrington would register in Whitehaven I believe so I searched BMD for Lowdons in Whitehaven and the earliest birth I could find was a Jane Lowdon in 1847. I think I've spotted her in 1861 with parents Thomas and Jane, both old enough to have had a son about 1843, but I'm unable to find the family in 1851 to see if they have a Robert with them  Sad
(RG9/3944 90 21)

They were Thos LOUDEN and family in 1851 (no suitable son) Sad

Lowdens had a Buchers Shop in Hensingham - Whitehaven up to 1993, their son Sid was a Rugby International. Wonder if it is the same family.

Search here for LOWDON in WHITEHAVEN www.192.com

You will need to buy credits for full details, but a Sydney LOWDON is there.

Or ...

try and make contact through the Whitehaven RLFC http://www.marras.co.uk/index.html

Someone at the club may have contact with him.
