Luke gave Revolutionary War pension deposition

The following is an excerpt from the deposition:

Francis, Tabitha & family lived in Augusta, GA on the
Savannah River during the remembered skirmish.
The father who fled across the river would have been Francis.

* Note: Mary Ann reared her sister Sarah's children.
**Note: Lucas William & Drucilla raised the (five) orphan children of
his brother Leonard & wife Martha. Martha was the sister of
Drucilla.
Leonard was killed in a hunting accident and Martha died of Consumption.
According to the Ethel Cummins book, when Lucas William lay dying he said,
"I'm really not sick - I'm just like an old clock, I've run down."
***Note: Did Nancy & John marry into the Lowder family instead of
the Lander family. Records are found in the Lowder lineage.
In regard to Samuel Lowder. Tombstone reads "Samuel Lowder
son of Thomas & Elizabeth Lowder, husband of Nancy Marbry."
Samuel Lowder is buried in Lot #74 and the daughter of Samuel &
Nancy Lowder (Mary Frances Lowder Turner) is buried in Lot #76.
No marker for Lot #75. This is probably Nancy's grave with no marker.
~Lowder information provided by Robert T. Marbury
In early spring 1853 (right after the death of Luke), Lucas William,
his brother Leonard & family, his sister Liza Marberry Gann
& family and several younger sisters migrated to Johnson Co. Illinois.
