Sir Francis William Lowe, 1st Baronet PC (8 January 1852 – 12 November 1929) was a British Conservative Party politician.

He was elected as Member of Parliament for Edgbaston at a by-election in February 1898, and held the seat until he stood down at the 1929 general election.

He was made a Baronet in 1918, of Edgbaston in the City of Birmingham, and was appointed as Privy Councillor in the 1929 Dissolution Honours.

He was married to Mary Holden; they had four children, including his heir Francis Gordon, who was a well-known tennis player before the First World War, as was another son, Arthur. A third son, John, played first-class cricket.
