General Notes: Husband - Stephen Lowry


When thirty years of age, he emigrated from near Dublin, Ireland, and settled in Rostraver, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, in 1774. He purchased about two hundred acres of land of Adam Wickerham, which he cleared and upon which he erected the first log house, where for a time he kept "bachelors' hall."
For many years he took the products of his farm in flat-boats to the New Orleans market, a custom not uncommon in those days among farmers residing near the river.
