both died William 1921 Mary 1969
No birthyears given. Scotlands People is only showing 2 births for that name - 1859 and 1912. The 1912 birth was Port Glasgow
Which one is yours?
If you are looking for the family of the one born 1912 - any marriage would have been in the 1930's so those children may still be alive. Rootschat has a "no living persons" policy
-
The Lowrie/McFadyen marriage was 1883 so Mary could not have died in 1969
Can you please clarify?
A William Lowrie aged 61 died in 1921 Port Glasgow but no middle christian name

Hi Carol, Thankyou for replying to my post, I am sorry Mary should read died 1948 - looking at too many Mary's I am looking at the William born1859 in Glasgow
