To the union were born 11 children, Mrs. Mae Harris, Emory, Frank, and Mrs. Minnie Brown of Griswold, Guy S. Lowman of Madison, Wis., Mrs. Stella Lawrence and Mrs. Ethel Moore of Griswold and Mrs. Bessie Luppold of Denver, Colo.

Mrs. Lowman was a Christian since early girlhood, and was a faithful member of the Church of Christ. When the Lowman’s came to the country there was no town where Atlantic now stands and Lewis was the county seat and Council Bluffs was the nearest trading point of any importance, being called Kanesville at that time. The Lowman home is in the southeast quarter of section 34 in Pleasant Township. Mrs. Lowman was laid to rest in the Lowman cemetery on the old home place, where some of the family are buried.
