Jack (Wyatt), I just went over the line you propose for the Thomas Lovelace with the wife Eleanor Evans. Number one, based on dates (you give Thomas a bd of 1650) you have to be referring to the immigrant Thomas and we have no proof at all that he remained in MD or married anyone or had kids. The Thomas with the wife Eleanor who we do know existed was born much later than that and we have no proof of her surname. The John you give as JBL's father with a birthdate of 1689 probably didn't exist, There is a John probably born much earlier who is probably the father of John with the wife Anne who is JBL's father as proven by documents. That John died in 1765 and was probably born later than 1689. So, that all being said I'm not following where you come up with a Thomas Lovelace and an Eleanor Evans. Lou Ann
