Minnie Caroline Roberts was born on May 17, 1925, in Green Turtle Cay, Abaco to Hartley Bernard Roberts (1889-1941) and Mira Lowe (1890-1979).

Her siblings included…

In June 1946, Minnie married Carl Harold Lowe (1925-2001) from Green Turtle Cay, Abaco. He is the son of Harold Jerome Lowe (1904-1987) and Minnie Caroline Roberts (1904-1999).

Their children included…

  • Karen Caroline
  • Stephen Carl

My dad John Wesley Lowe (1925-2013) and Minnie were first cousins born weeks apart on Green Turtle Cay. Dad’s father, Howard Lowe, and Minnie’s mother, Mira Roberts née Lowe, were siblings. Dad and Minnie obviously shared many childhood memories, and he often referred to her as his ‘sister’.

Minnie Caroline Lowe née Roberts passed away on March 13, 2003 (age 87) in Monteverde, Florida and is buried at Hollywood Memorial Gardens. She is my 2nd cousin 1 time removed.
