WILL
Henry Alexander Lowry's will was signed on the 3rd day of June 1882 and probated the 16th day of Octr. 1882 in the Co. of Donegal. It includes two codicils. Henry left his Drumcrow farm to his sons Henry, who was in Australia, and Andrew, at home, to be shared. It included legacies to be paid to his son James, his daughter Harriett, and his wife Mary. The first codicil signed on the 16th day of June 1882 left the farm to Henry with a legacy to be paid to Andrew including lodging until he was 21 yrs of age and a subsequent legacy after that. The second codicil signed on the 24th day of June 1882 arranges more clearly how the legacies are to be paid out to James, Andrew and Harriett. Henry evidently chose not to accept theDrumcrow farm and although he came home for his father's funeral left for America where he lived in Philadelphia. The Drumcrow farm went to daughter Harriett Lowry who married John Hamilton Craig about 1884 and is currently in the Craig family. ! According to Henry Alexander Lowry's will he had an Uncle George to whom he owed a debt of Three Hundred Pounds. A cousin, Andrew Lowry, of Feddyglass was named executor of the will. Also, in the will, he made allowances for his sister Eliza.
