Lowndes family history 
I am interested in joining your Facebook group if possible please, I am a descendant of Staffordshire/Shropshire Lowndes family, Margaret Lowndes b.1752 in Rocester, Staffordshire married into my Shropshire, Withington family. The name is retained as a middle name to this day.
Our facebook group Loundes Family Research is a closed group but we are open to member who are researching the Loundes surname x
My family name also has a facebook page and I like it because I know a lot of relatives which I dont know before.
