Looking for Lowry Anderson
« on: Wednesday 08 September 04 21:04 BST (UK) »
Hi, I'm looking for the birth and parents of Lowry Anderson who married Elizabeth Thompson in the parish of Kilbarron, Donegal in 1834.  Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Rachel,

We have a small problem here. The way I read the information contained in this URL
means that not much progress will be made be looking at the registration of marriage in the Church records. All that will appear is the two names you already have and the name of the officiating minister. Which branch of the Christian faith did Lowry and Elizabeth follow ? If you are lucky enough establish the Church in which they were married then it is a case of hoping Lowry lived in the same area and was baptised in the same church. It is probable that Elizabeth lived in that area and was baptised in that church as marriages tend to take place in the church that the bride and her family attend.
