I've been trying to figure this one out. The Lovelace cousins mentioned are the children of John Robert "Buster" Lovelace and Leiler Davidson. In the obit of Leiler are mentioned four sisters-in-law one of whom is the Rosa Lee Davidson mentioned below as the grandmother of Melvin Barber. Leiler's obit does not mention any deceased brothers, so it appears that the four sisters in law are the sisters of John Robert and the Davidson that Rosa Lee married is probably a relative, but not a brother of Leiler. Does anyone know who the parents of John Robert might be and his four possible sisters Rosa Lee Davidson, Ruth Broughton, Willie mae Allen and Gussie Lee hutchinson. John Robert died in 1980, Leiler in 2008. She was born in 1911 and I don't have a birthdate for him. Rosa Lee was living in 2008, but had apparently died by by the time her grandson died in Feb 2015. Anyone have any ideas about this family?
