James was the son of John Lowe. James Lowe enlisted as a private in the First Maryland Regiment under Col. John H. Stone in 1778 for three years service (The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, Volume 43, page 206). On 22 January 1796 in Fauquier County, Virginia he married Rosanna Hanbach. James and Rosanna had eleven children, six daughters and five sons.
