I am, together with my fourth cousin, Sandra CRASHLEY, organising a family gathering to be be held at Minting Village Hall on Saturday 5th July 2014. If you can trace your ancestry back to George LOVELEY and Ann TOYN, who married on 29th April 1778 at St. Oswald¹s church, Rand, then you would be most welcome to join us. It will be an opportunity to meet other members of our extended family and learn more the history of the LOVELY family. We would be interested in hearing from anyone with the LOVELY surname in their family tree, even if a link to George and Ann is not known. We might be related. Over the years the LOVELY surname has also been spelt as LOVELEY or LOVLEY and several present day branches of the family use these variant spellings of the surname. If you would like any further information about our plans for the day then please don¹t hesitate to contact me or Sandra.
