James Low was my great grandfather. His address was 3 Yeamans Alley, Lochee, Dundee. He was the son of Mary Jean Scrimgeour but was raised mainly by his Grandmother Mary Low aka Granny Booth, who married John Gibson Booth after she gave birth to Jane. James’s father was never in the picture along with Jane’s (James mother) father so he went by his grandmother’s maiden name which was Low as she was Low when she gave birth to James’s mother Jane. Both his grandmother and his mother married but neither of those men were blood relatives to James hence why he went by his Grandmothers surname.
