Hi Rachael, My great grandfather was the Frederick George Lownds noted, son of John and Mary (Roberts). I am also looking for the same information for the family so find the reply really useful! I have only gotten back as far as William (father of John).
Glad to meet a distant cousin!

Hi
Glad the information was useful for you. Somewhere I my search I took a wrong turn and followed a wrong person so the Lownds are not part of my tree like I thought they were. Good luck I your search x
