Notes from Holli Boone Kees (most of the obituary of my Great Grandmother is correct, but some of it is wrong...Mary Olivia Lowry Loving was the daughter of Robert James Lowry and although he did serve in the Civil War..he was not an officer. She was also not born in Georgia..she was born in Nacogodoches Co., Texas)
