Commemorative Biographical Record of Kent County, Ontario, J.H. Beers & Co., Toronto, 1904, pg. 576-577:
Caleb Lowes, a retired farmer of Harwich township, has lately moved into Blenheim, to enjoy his well-earned rest after the labors of an active life. Although a native of England, he has spent nearly all his life in Canada, where he came with his parents as a small boy. He was a grandson of William and Mary Lowes, who lived and died in England.
William and Mary (Walton) Lowes, parents of Caleb, were natives of Northumberland county, England, from whence they came to Canada in 1827. They settled on a farm where they remained until 1839, when they came to Harwich township to be with their children. William Lowes was a school teacher for many years in the County of Kent, and taught at odd times, even after he gave it up as a regular occupation. He was also prominent in town affairs, holding the position of tax collector for three years, and serving as school trustee for a number of years. He died in 1856 at the age of seventy-five, and his wife died in 1858, aged seventy-seven. Both were members of the Wesleyan Methodist Church, and are buried in Crawford cemetery, Raleigh township. Their children were as follows: John, deceased, of Zone township; Thomas, deceased; Mary, deceased, wife of farmer Thomas Martin; William, deceased; Caleb, of this sketch; Joseph; Nancy; Sally, wife of Freeman Truax; Jane; and Betsy, wife of Randolph Dawson (all deceased); Isabella, widow of Terrance L. Conlin, of Marine City, Michigan; and Matthew, of Marine City.
