The Lowrie Gang, led by Henry Berry Lowrie and his brothers William, Stephen, and Thomas, was one of the most desperate and violent group of criminals ever to operate in North Carolina. Between 1864 and 1872, the gang terrorized the citizens of Robeson County committing murders, thefts and arson. Henry Lowrie accidentally killed himself in 1872 through the discharge of his shotgun, and by 1874 the remaining gang members had been tracked down and killed.
