Most people know that Jeff was not related to Alex Lowe but that he is related to Mike and George.

Both of Jeff's parents came from large families so he has a lot of aunts and uncles and cousins.

Of course there is aunt Bee and uncle Mel Lowe, he is a yoga instructor/ barista in Portland.

And uncle Will makes rattan furniture in West Virginia.

Uncle Bill runs a smoke shop in Boulder Co.

Cy Lowe is a wheat farmer in Kansas,

And of course his most famous cousin, Jennifer... J Lowe.

Other cousins,,

Al Lowe, runs a spa in Taos Nm

Cal, lives in northern Oregon although he is not really in touch anymore.

Shy, she's a civil war historian in Tennesee.

They also remember many of the family that came from the old country in the mid 1800's.

Great grand parents Bell and Pika from Estonia. He was known for his strong lowe voice. She played a mean flute.

And great uncle Tal from Loweistan, known for making exceptional candles.

Going back even further there was the first ruler of Loweistan'
Shah Lowe. A fine ruler , but his thought were not very deep.

There must be some I have missed.

So, are you saying your own genealogy goes back to Hansen and Gretyl?

I forgot his Chinese cousin, though he was accused of stealing money from the mattress factory he ran and has not been seen in years,

Lai-ing Lowe.

There's also a distant cousin, Lowe Fat; and an even more distant relative Hy N. Lowe who hasn't been seen in years.

Alex Lowe's wife Jennifer had the maiden name of Leigh hence Jenni Leigh-Lowe.

Jim- Jeff started a thread about Lowe product names that were never used and the Sweet Lowe Down that Mimi suggested tickled him pretty good. Have to find and bump that thread...
