County Alabama Map
and
concerned Jefferson County area
David Lowry settled in Shelby County Alabama prior to Alabama becoming a State. The first data at this time is the 1820 Federal Census report. Two of his sons, Thomas and George, were married during the 1820's. The 1850 census report indicates David and his wife Sarah living next to (or with) their son Thomas in Shelby county (Montevallo). George had settled a short distance away (just over the border), in Leeds, Jefferson County.
