Transcribed by Karyl Hubbard, Will of Isaac Baldwin, Joyce M. Tice Tri-county Historical Society website, "my Daughters Alfa Harden, Ada Jenkins, Mary Low."
She was the daughter of Isaac and Patience (Rathbun) Baldwin. It is unclear whether she was born in Norwich, CT or Pittston, Wyoming Valley, PA.
According to the records of the Granger Temperance Society, she was a member of that organization.
From Memorial to the Pioneer Women of the Western Reserve p. 951:
Mary Baldwin, Mrs. Anthony Lowe, Sr. was born in Wyoming, Pa. She was an eye-witness of the terrible massacre of the white inhabitants by the Indians following a Tory victory, July 3rd, 1778. She saw babes snatched from their mothers' arms and dashed to death against the nearest tree. She, with a few young girls, the survivors, were carried captives to Canada. She escaped several years later and went to Ontario County, N. Y. She married Anthony Lowe, a native of Rhode Island. They had fifteen children. All of the name in the eastern half of Medina County and the western half of Summit County are said to be her descendants. She had a beautiful singing voice, and was also a violinist. Her musical accomplishments contributed much to the life of the early community here.
August 2nd, 1818 was a most happy day in Granger. TWO BABIES the first born in Granger. arrived that day. Both infants were grandchildren of Mary Baldwin and Anthony Lowe. The little boy, Hiram Jr., was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Lowe's son Hiram, Sr., and the girl baby was the daughter of their daughter Leona [Lavinia] and her husband Nathaniel Goodwin.
Her father, Isaac Baldwin, was a soldier during the Revolutionary War--see his memorial page for information on DAR membership.
