[Note:  Fielding Lowe was married first to Mary Swope.  After she 
died, he married Sarah Bowman Carroll, a widow with children.  
Sarah was quite a bit younger than Fielding - he lived to be 104 - 
and they had a family of their own before his death.  His children 
from his first marriage were already grown by the time he married 
Sarah.]


I, Fielding Lowe, do make and publish this as my last will and 
testament hereby revoking and making void all wills by me at any 
other time made.

First I want my funeral expenses and all my just debts paid out of 
any money I may die possessed of or the first that may come into 
the hands of my executor.

Secondly I will and bequeath to my beloved children to Margaret 
Campbell, Matta Brown, John Lowe, William A. Lowe, Polly 
Cooper, Samuel Lowe, Sally Branam, Eliza Branam, and Elizabeth 
Bryant one dollar to each of the above named children.

Thirdly I will and bequeath to my beloved wife Sarah all my lands 
that I may have at the time of my death and all my other proprety 
and all debts that may be owing to me at the time of my death to 
have and use during her natural life or while she remains a widow 
and at her death or marriage then to belong to my other four 
children to Emaline, Parley, Becca Jane, and Elias to be equally 
devided among them.

Then fourthly and lastly I hereby nominate and appoint my beloved 
wife Sarah my executor of this my last will and testament in 
witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this the 1st 
day of October 1858.

Fielding Lowe (his mark)

Signed and delivered in our presents this the 1st day of October
