"History of the McDowells, Erwins, Irwins and Connections" by Hon. John Hugh McDowell
C.B. Johnston & Co. 1918
Page 411

Joseph McDowell, father of Mary E Gordon, died when in his prime. His wife had died previously in childbirth. So Mary E McDowell was left as a tiny tot to grow up without father or mother, sister or brother. She first lived with her mother's people, then with her father's brother Samuel McDowell. She was a beautiful, vivacious girl.
Joseph and his young wife are buried side by side at King's Chapel, on the Shenango.
