I'm still searching for info on my Lovick Pierce Jordan. He was born in 1807 in S.C. He was in Jones Co. Ga., about 1827, where he married a Nancy Heath. She died, and he then married Melinda Ann Freeman in the 1830's. They were listed on the Pike Co. Ga. census in 1850. They ended up in Chambers Co. Al., where he died in 1864. He is buried at Bethel Baptist church cemetery in Chambers Co. Al. Some think his father may have been a Jacob Jordan, and his mother an Elizabeth, but don't know her maiden name. I know there was a Jacob Jordan in Jones Co. Ga., at the same time he was, but I feel, this may have been a brother. Also, there was an Elias Jordan, there at the same time, and I feel he is also connected. Lovick did name one of his sons Jacob, and another son Elias, so there must be some connection there! I feel Lovick was named for Lovick Pierce, a prominent Methodist minister. I wish I could find concrete evidence on who his parents were. Thank you, Becky Carden
Becky Your Lovick is quite close in name to my Lovett. Lovett Jordan was b. 1803 Orange Co. SC, m. Margaret Williamson; They were in Newton Co. MS by 1860. His ancestors have not been uncovered, although there is some information available about Margaret's parents. J R Hollingsworth in Houston
