Hi Billy,

Yes I am, this is my grandmother's cousin. My mother's family came from Perth, Scotland. My great grandmother Margaret Jane Low was a sister to Janet McGregor Low, the mother of Janet Low Nicoll.   I am thinking this is Aunt Jenny who  married Bert Gower 

Janet married Bert Gower. Bert lost his arm in WW1 and met Janet a nurse at the hospital.    They had a son Hamish McLaren Gower.  

Bert and Jenny Gower were in their 80's when I met them in about 1978. They lived in Cheltenham or Gloucestershire. Their son Hamish McLaren Gower was then 62 and marr to Joan. Sadly, Their twin sons were killed during WW2 when a bomb fell on the bus.  

If you could find Aunt Jenny's marriage, that would be great.

re Janet Low married Herbert Gower.  I now know that Janet was born 22 Sep 1899 in England and died 1986 in Cheltenham.  In the 1901 census she is living with her Uncle David Low and his wife Grace Wilson in Perth, Perth, Scotland.

I would like to know who her parents were.  David's siblings were Janet McGregor Low, John McLaren Low, Peter Low, Margaret McLaren Low (my ggrandmother), William McDonald Low, James Young Low and George Fernie Erskine Low (died aged 1Year).

Herbert Gower was born 1890 in Eastbourne, Sussex and died 1980 in Cheltenham.  I know they had a son Hamish McLaren Gower.

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks Marilyn Parfitt
