Could the list administrator tell me if Geneva Martin is on the Love list? She sent me a document in the mail and I cannot find her email address to talk to her about it. Katheryn --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier. Bingo.

Anyone know about Isaiah Pene Love or Joseph Crafford Love? Same are said to be sons of James and Elizabeth love. Heirs to his estate by will, made in 1832 and probated 1835 in what is now Fulton County, GA. Oliver Love

There have been occasional references to LOVEs in PA in the late 1700's (such as the one below). My Joseph LOVE was born in PA in 1797, but I have no idea who his father is. Joseph married Susannah Andrews b. 1801 VA. In the early 1800's this family bounced back and forth between PA and VA before moving to IL and west. He named his first son William. Has anyone done a survey of all the LOVEs in PA and adjacent states in the mid-late 1700's? Please, anyone with LOVEs in this area at this time, send in your info (name, DOB, POB, wife & children's names if known) and I would love to sit down and sort through it all for connections and then post the results. How many different LOVE families could there have been at that time? Maybe a few, but there must be SOME connections!

John married Ada Pfeifle in 1932, and according to my information he died in 1998 maybe in MT. I would love to hear from any descendants from this marriage. I have much information about this line of Loves, but nothing about the ancestors of John's grandfather, Clinton Love. Can we exchange information about this family? Thanks, Shirley

Is any one researching the following Love family: John LOVE, b. about 1788 in Ireland, d. about 1879 in Whitfield Co, GA. See below. Bill Chattanooga, TN [email protected] Descendants of John LOVE - 1 May 2003 First Generation 1. John LOVE was born about 1788 in Ireland. He died about 1879 in Whitfield Co, GA. He was buried in Georgia. John was a farmer. John LOVE was born about 1788 in Ireland and was dead by 1880. Elizabeth McCARTER was born about 1795 in Ireland and was also dead by 1880. The family tale is that they both came over to America on a boat as children, but met and married later. There was a boat The Brothers, that sailed from Londonderry to Philadelphia in December 1806. In steerage was a James LOVE (Quantity of Baggage one Bundle) and a Thomas McCarter (Quantity of Baggage, One Chest, One Barrel). I have not been able to prove it, but I believe these were the fathers of John and Elizabeth. John would have been 18 and Elizabeth 11 - far enough apart not to socialize on a boat. They probably married about 1815 as William J. was born in 1816. Their children, according to the census reports, were: William J. b. 1816 in NC; John H. b. 1822 in NC; Robert R. b. 1827 in NC; James b. 1829 in NC; McCarter b. 1832 in GA; Sarah b. 1834 in GA. Census reports have them in 1840 in Union County GA 1850 in Gilmer County (John 62, Elizabeth 55 McCarter 18 and Sarah 16). 1860 Pickens County Georgia, Talking Rock. (John 78, Elizabeth 65, William H. 12, Elizabeth 6 Talitha 5). Children of Andrew M. LOVE. 1870 Whitfield County with Sarah and Frederick THOMPSON. Census says John is 85 (FARMER, almost helpless) and Elizabeth is 78, keeping house, helpless.) They are not listed in the 1880 census and are presumed dead. My grandfather, George Washington LOVE, son of McCarter LOVE, remembered going to visit John and Elizabeth and hearing them speak in Gaelic when they didn't want the children to understand them. John LOVE and Elizabeth MC CARTER? were married about 1815 in North Carolina. 1840 Census Union Co., GA 1850 Census Gilmer Co., GA, Fam 1301 (GA-38) 1860 Census Pickens Co., GA 1870 Census Whitfield Co., GA - John and Elizabeth are living with daughter Sarah Love Thompson in Mill Creek District. Some of the sons were Tanners. Elizabeth MC CARTER? was born about 1795 in Ireland. She died in Whitfield Co, GA. Elizabeth was born about 1795 in Ireland and died prior to 1880. She came to America at about the age of 11. There was a boat, The Brothers, that sailed from Londonderry to Philadelphia in December 1806. In Stearage was a Thomas McCarter (quantity of baggage - one chest and one barrel). John LOVE and Elizabeth MC CARTER? had the following children: +2 i. William Jasper LOVE (born on 29 Mar 1816). +3 ii. John H. LOVE (born on 29 Dec 1819). +4 iii. Andrew Madison LOVE (born on 14 May 1822). +5 iv. Robert R. LOVE (born in 1827). +6 v. James W. LOVE (born on 19 Jul 1828). +7 vi. McCarter LOVE (born in 1832). +8 vii. Sarah E. LOVE (born in 1834).

I have access to several volumes of the records noted above and found several Loves last night while I was searching Baltimore records. I am happy to check for any of you if you can send me names, dates, any details. The records include birth, marriage, death from church records and headstones, some land records, old and obscure area histories. Give me a shout. Susan.

With the recent postings about LOVE in MD, and LOVE in Chester Co., PA, does anyone have information on John and William LOVE who were in Talbot Co., MD by the early 1700s? No earlier records of LOVE are found in the county, so they must have come from somewhere else. What is the connection to Joseph HARDIN/HARDING? Additional information on them at my site below.

I ordered the book "History of Faggs Manor Presbyterian Church, 1730-1980" By Wm. Noble, H. Heagey and Musetta McClellan, through interlibrary loan just to see for myself what everyone was quoting. Below is what is in it. Katheryn ********** James Cochran, John Ramsey, JOHN LOVE, John Smith, John Simpson and William Boyd were elders. [Pg. # did not print, but it is re. 1740.] "Hostile bands of Indians continued to ravage the new settlement. Many...people, improverished and discouraged, withdrew to the more densely population regions." [Pg. 17, 1754] "The date of this instrument [deed to church peoperty] is June 15, 1759. The grantees were Job Ruston, James Coughran, William Boyd and David Ramsey, all of Chester County and John Taylor of Lancaster County.... "In order to secure the property forever for church purposes, a deed was made the next year by these five gentlement to the Board of Trustees consisting of Rev. John Blair, Jophn Smith, Moses Ross, David Simpson, DA! VID FLEMING." [Pg. 17-18, 1759] (John Love is supposed to have married Margaret Fleming about the time he left PA and moved to TN in the late 1700s.) "The name of Job Ruston...is one which deserves the remembrance of the church, and one of his acts is especially worth of record and imitation. By his will he bequeathed to his executors, THOMAS LOVE and James Boyd, the sum of one hundred pounds 'to be by them laid out so that the interest may be paid toward the supporet of the gospel ministry that shall be the pastor and preacher in the meeting-house at Faggs Manor in Londonderry Township, Chester County.' " [Pg. 18, 1757] "....notes found on the third floor of Jackson Hall where various church records are stored. These notes seem to be a record of Sessional events from 1760 to 1770. "October 1760. Presbytery met in Faggs Manor. JNO LOVE, elder and John Blair, minister." [Pg. 19, 1770] "October 1770. George Cochran complains to Essiion for refusing a copy of jud! gmenet and certificate for Mr. Foster and Robert Smith appointed to meet with session and reopen the case. Session members - JOHN LOVE, David Ramsay, James Gilleland, DAVID FLEMING, and Thomas Armstrong." [pg. 20, 1770] "In the year 1775, the congregation, still without a pastor, enetered upon the erection of a new church....'The Trustees' Book' for the meetinghoouse of Faggs Manor, containing a true copy of the subscriptions taken from the original paper, divided into six quarters as entered in this book. The collectors of the six 'Quarters' were THOMAS LOVE, John Ramsay, John Ross, James Boyd, William Sterritt and Robert Cochran. The total amopunt of the subscriptions recorded in this book is 608 pounds, 11 shillings, 6 denari." [pg. 21, 1775] "The church building was commenced the year before the signing of the Declaration of Independence...in the midst of a bloody war. What trials the congregation underwent in the building of a church at such a time, and what part! they took in the struggle for national freedom, we have no means now of ascertaining. but of their fidelity both to the cause of God and their country, we have no room to doubt. "That the congregation furnished its quota of men for the war of independence seems almost certain fromthe fact that two members of the session were commissiuoned officers, and as both were men of character and influence, they would not be without a following from their own regions. General Samuel Cochran and LIEUTENANT THOMAS LOVE were brave soldiers and men of earnest piety. Though differinbg in rank, they were bosom friends, and occupied the same tent when in camp. And from their tent was heard to arise every day morning and night the voice of song and prayer as in their 'family worship' they sang one of Rouse's psalms, and knelt together before the throne of grace." [Pg. 22, 1776] "An old account book kept by Mr. Finley [minister 1781-1793] and now in the possession of the MISSES LOVE...."! [Pg. 23, 1781] "The churches of the east were sadly depleted, some almost extinguished by this emigration. In the birth of new institutions the mother's life was put in jeopardy. this church, like others, suffered. Mr. Finley's account book foots up the loss by death and removals in one year and finds it to be one hundred and forty, or one hundred and fifty bushels of wheat, more than one-third of the pastor's salary. No wonder pastors became discouraged, and turned their faces, like their peoples, westward....Three commissioners were appointed by the congreation to accede in their behalf to this request [for decent pay. But they couldn't come up with enough to support him.] "With sorrow it is but in justice to him we must concur with his request [to be released from preaching there]." Signed John Ross, THOMAS LOVE, John Ramsey [Pg?, 1787] Membership in 1804 included: James Love, Martha Love, Mary Love, Sarah Love, Thomas Love, James Ramsay, John Ramsay, Margaret ! Ramsay, Alexander Walker. (I copied these surnames because they are present in Knox Co., TN, also.) "Mrs. Martha ross and Mr. Hugh Daniel, both of whom loved on the borders of the congregation, four or five miles from the church, tell us that it was their habit to walk to church in their youth, and that from all parts of the congregation the people came to the House of God on foot. REV. THOMAS LOVE says that more than eighty years ago when he was an infant his mother carried him before her on a horse to the old church to present him to the Lord in baptism. Carriages were almost unknown." [Pg. 30, 1809] "Besides his [White's] own sons two other young men went out from Faggs Manor as ministers of the gospel in the time of Mr. White. they were another pair of brothers, THOMAS AND ROBERT LOVE. ROBERT settled in the churches of Harmony and Oxford, NJ, and after a ministry of six years died October 9, 1838, at the early age of thirty-one years. THOMAS, the elder of the two,! is still living and resides in Hockessin, Deleware. He had retired from the active work of the ministry after a long and faithful service as pastor of Rred Clay Creek Church for nearly forty years. THE LOVE FAMILY has been a prominent one in Faggs Manor Church from the beginning. JOHN LOVE was one of the first elders, and in each generation since one or more of his descendants have been members of the session. His son, grandson, and great-grandson, like himself, were elders, and his lineal descendant of the fifth generation, Mr.J. HAMILTON ROSS, still retains the succession."

This message is for Geneva Martin. I received the document stating that John Love of TN was the father of Thomas B. Love of TN. Also the typed pages. Thank you so very much. Now we need to prove that John Love of Pennsylvania was the father of Thomas Love b. 1739 of PA. I was gone through part of April, and have spent the last several days getting things back in order at home. Your letter did arrive about three weeks ago, probably as soon as I left. I hope everyone out there in genealogy cyber space appreciates people like Geneva who make expensive trips to courthouses in other states, pour over old heavy dusty books, photocopy them, then go home and share what they learned free to others tracing the same family. Again, thanks, Geneva. Katheryn

Recently I went back through the Bureau of Land Management items for Maries County. They have added three - all with the name Isaac L. Love. Isaac L. Love of Maries County, MO in 1858, Isaac L. Love of Crawford County MO in 1856, and Isaac L. Love of Phelps County, MO in 1860. Is this Isaac (Sr) who married Phoebe Connelly, or Isaac (Jr) who married Nancy Grisham? Does anyone know for sure which one, and what does the L. stand for? Any ideas anyone? Judy Germann
