So I just closed on a property and we are trying to identify the brand/style/manufacture of the cabinets as almost all of the faces and doors are missing. It is a small town in Southeast Texas with a Lowe's so my first assumption is they were purchased there. However, some of y'all can understand how difficult it can be dealing with an associate at Lowe's that may or may not be knowledgeable. Any suggestions on how to find out the manufacturer ? They are very nice cabinet's for a sub 100k home so I definitely want to utilize them

I would suggest refinishing them and just go with a new wood door of your choice. Unless they are odd sizes the brand should matter.
If they came from a big box store then there might be a sticker somewhere with a name or number on it. Stick your head inside the cabinets and look at the bottom of the counter and behind the stiles. Although I wouldn't really worry about it. The original manufacturer isn't really important. Any cabinet maker or decent carpenter will be able to make new faces to fit the existing cabinet bases.

Very likely to be standard size, save yourself the hassle and just get new doors and then refinish if you need to.

It befuddles me why all manufacturers don't identify their products... those that do, often place the information on the inside of one of the drawer boxes. Nonetheless, buying parts from the original manufacturer is likely to be more costly than using one of the suggestions above.
It looks like some of the cabinet boxes are colored on the inside to match the exterior - that is often done when the doors have clear glass... if so, a nice touch that may be less expensive than raised panels.

There is usually a sticker on one of the sink base doors that has a code that identifies the manufacturer. Even if you could find the manufacturer, they probably wouldn't sell you a just doors, same way Ford won't sell you a headlight. You'd have to find a shop that is a dealer for that manufacturer. And even then, some wouldn't sell a full set of replacement doors.
