  Death	Bef 4 Feb 1791	Montgomery Township, Ulster County, NY
  Notes	(1) According to several sources, Jonathan LOW was the father of John LOW, who was born in 1752 in NJ, and died in 1813 in Lycoming County, PA. The compiler believes that this information is incorrect. The compiler knows of no evidence that Jonathan LOW and his wife ever lived in NJ, where John LOW was born. Moreover, Jonathan LOW did not mention, in his will, any son named John. (2) Jonathan mentioned in his will the following children of his: Peter, James, Mary, Catharine, Magdalena and Elisabeth. The compiler has found a baptismal record for only one of such children, Mary (Maria), and has not identified which of Jonathan's wives was the mother of any other child of his.

No. 3205 Parents: Petrus Louw, Catrina du Bois Name of Child and Date of Baptism: Jonathan 5 April Witnesses and Sponsors: Nathaniel du Bois, Marytjen du Bois. (4) A household headed by Jonathan LOW is listed in the 1790 census of Montgomery Township, Ulster County, NY. Listed in Jonathan's household are 4 free white males over 16 years of age; and 3 free white females. Jonathan must be one of the free white males who was over 16 years of age in 1790. The other three free white males in Jonathan's household may have been his sons. All of such males were born sometime before 1774, according to the 1790 census. Jonathan's wife may have been one of the three free white females in Jonathan's household. The other two free white females in Jonathan's household may have been his daughters.
