So exciting! I have this photo. Bride is Mabel Loretta Lowes, daughter of Wilson Lowes and Mary Ann Fleming. Mabel was born 17 May 1898, married in 17 Nov 1920 in East Oxford, died in 1998. Her husband is Harold John Stevens, born about 1895, died Dec. 1968. My mother was a Lowes and her Grandparents, Joseph & Margaret Patterson Lowes owned a General Store in New Durham, after Margaret's parents, Patterson's owned the store.

If this is Mabel Lauretta, she was my grandma Della Margaret Lowes’ sister, and was my great aunt. I will show my dad - he will love to see it! (I only remember Aunt Mabel later in life - at my grandma’s 80th birthday party.) My grandma, Della (Lowes) McClellan also lived a long life, passing away in 2002 at 102 years old.
