Thanks, Nancy. James Alexander Monroe Lovelace is the great-grandfather of Sue Hassler and me. I have been to the cemetery (it took me a long time to find it) and photographed the grave. The cemetery is just down the road from South Fork (of TV fame). James Lovelace died of a heat stroke in 1882 when my grandmother was only six months old. After his death his family moved to Montague County, Texas, to live with his widow's family. As I remember, one of the McMillans was married to a Lovelace. Carolyn.

Nancy & Sue, I think DNA indicates that James was from the Maryland line. Can anyone confirm that?

James Alexander Monroe Lovelace was one of the Rhode Island line, I think. His DNA marker was R1b1c10. His father was Andrew Jackson Lovelace, and his grandfather probably Young Lovelace.
