Foster Lowery Galloway
« on: Sunday 28 February 10 17:14 GMT (UK) »
Hi my GF Elijah Galloway b.1885 d. 1916 was one of 12 children who lived in Willington Quay.
Some of his brothers had middle names of Foster Lowery. ::)
Whilst I know the Foster part comes from my GGM Elizabeth Jane Foster b. 1847 I am unable to link the name Lowery I don't think the name comes from the Galloway side of the family. Can anyone help ???

Hi Dave, you may have to look further back.

however sometimes nothing comes up --- my GF Edward Dixon Burns Legg is an example. the Dixon Burns bit has absolutely no connection I can find - and I've gone back generations and sideways!!

Hello Dave, Sometimes looking at the birth order of the names of the children will help tremendously... Pat

Many thanks for taking the trouble to reply I guess it just means I'll have to keep digging. :(
