John McGregor LOWE

1864 - 1891  (16 years)

• Name	John McGregor LOWE
  Birth	25 Dec 1864	Moser River, Halifax, NS   [1, 2]
  Gender	Male
  Death	Between 1881 and 1891	Moser River, Halifax, NS
  Burial	St. Andrew's United Cemetery, Moser River, NS   [3]
  	The transcription of a marker at St. Andrew's Cemetery, Moser River, reads "John M. LOWE 1857 - 1865", and there is no doubt who he is since his father and a few siblings are on the same marker. But there is an 1864 NS registration of birth for a John McGregor LOWE to these parents, and it is highly improbable that they would have re-used the name of a living child. The answer may be that there is a transcription error in the cemetery listing. The transcription of a marker at St. Andrew's Cemetery, Moser River, reads "John M.
