John, sorry its taken me so long to respond to your message full of interesting source material (at least for the small number of listers interested in the Glamorgan Lovelucks!) We've already communciated off-list about my twin theory concerning Catherine & William b 1891 and I bow to the overwhelming evidence presented by Ron and yourself! Thanks for reminding me about the non-Glamorgan Lovelucks - maybe we need a Web page where we can collect together these Loveluck "strays". There are a couple of LovelUcks in the "Lyneham Line" on the LovelOck Web pages (now mis-named since it actually has its origins in Wroughton), which has a twig in Glamorgan, and clearly exhibits the LovelOck to LovelUck name change at a quite recent date. There are also the Tasmanian Lovelucks which trace their origins back to Henry Loveluck (1783-1867) of Marylebone (they can be found on the Lovelock Web site at: http://perso.numericable.fr/~lovjames/family-history/lovelock/fragments/misc-lovelock-trees.html#Tasmania Concerning the Maudlam and Margam Abbey graves, I have the Glam FHS transcritions of many of them on the LovelUck Web site under Records -> Monumental Inscritions. There are also photos of many of the gravestones, taken during our pilgrimage to Glamorgan about 3 years ago, when Allen Blethyn gave me a guided tour of the churchyards! However, in your note there were several that I did not have on my Web page, including the first one (David Jenkins and family, including Mary Izod Jenkins, née Loveluck) and also the Jenkin grave at Margam Abbey - I'll add these to the corresponding Web pages. Note also the GFHS mix-up concerning the gravestone of Sophia Wood! The GFHS transcription of grave A20 also contains an error - the date of death of John Thomas Loveluck is given as Jul 8 1919, whereas it should be Jul 8 1929, as is quite clear from the photo. I'll stop here for now and deal with the rest of your message later! James
Hello Ed I too am from the Shipton Moyne Lovelocks -via John's sister Sarah. Can't recall if we've been in touch before ? I agree we seem to be out on a limb at present . Never mind - no doubt we'll tie in in the end . Steve Tanner
I have noticed on the Wiltshire tree a marriage of Richard John LOVELOCK to Eliza (aka Elizabeth or Liza) Little at Clyffe Pypard in 1863. My ggGrandparents were John Lovelock (1812 -1874) of Shipton Moyne and Ann Little (1832 - 1868) of Clyffe Pypard. Ann was John' second wife. I believe that Ann had a sister Eliza b 1843 who could be the Elizabeth above. Does anyone have any details of the Little family of Clyffe Pypard? We descendants of the Shipton Moyne Lovelocks are not well represented on the list or website, but I'm sure we'll find the link to the other branches eventually.

Hello all, Encouraged by Graham Lovelock I've made some more changes to the "Trees & Fragments" section on the Web site. The "Collected Fragments" had become somewhat unmanageable (in particular the notes explaining the relation to the original version) and contained redundant or duplicate material. So what I have done is to replace this by a page called "Misc. Trees" which contains trees and fragments which do not belong to the Wiltshire or Berkshire trees pages, together with some fragments which require further research before they can be ratified. However, for those who may be interested in the evolution of the different trees I have also added a page called "The Early Lovelock Fragments" (accessed from the "Overview" page) which includes essentially the original versions of the "Collected Lovelock Fragments" together with early versions of fragments for a number of Wiltshire parishes. I have also attempted to indicate how these early fragments are related to the current ones. If anyone has trees or fragments which they would like to contribute to the Miscellaneous Trees and Fragments page I would be more than happy to add them. My hope is that this will become a collection which evolves and perhaps we could eventually produce separate pages for established trees for other counties (Hampshire comes to mind for example). Let me know of you think this is (or is not) a good idea. Regards, James

I will try to find time to sort out my Martin Lovelock tree which is based on the fact that Martin is an uncommon name among the Lovelocks and they all seem to be in the SE Berks/North Hampshire area with some diversions into London and Kent so I have assumed they are probably all related Elizabeth Lovelock baptised on 22 November 1696 - All Saints, Swallowfield to Martin & Anne Lovelock is one of my direct ancestors on my maternal grandmother's side of the family. Elizabeth married Jonathan Lewington in Swallowfield and had 10 children there but her great-grandchild had migrated to Eversley/Heckfield by the 1770s Martin & Ann had a son Martin and it is his descendants I have a very speculative tree for. It would be great to have someone else's comments on this fragment and I would love to be able to add parents for the first Martin I have > Let me know of you think this is (or is not) a good idea. seems a pretty good plan to me -- John Lewis, Debian GNU/Linux and GeneWeb genealogy software
Hello all, I've added to the "Lovelock Gathering" page a link to a scanned copy (provided by Graham) of the report on the Lovelocks Alive 2004 gathering from Family History Magazine (reproduced with permission). The copy isn't of very good quality, so if anyone has a better one (preferably jpeg or PDF format) I'd be very pleased to replace it! Regards, James
Dear Michelle, I have James born in Childrey Wantage. I think yours is probably right. All I know of Frederick John was that he was a drayman for a brewing company in Merton Surrey. How he ended up in Merton I dont know. He and his wife Eliza lived in Merton High Street. I am very friendly with Bobs sister Beryl and she told me about him and also sent pictures of him and his wife. He died tragically but I still cant help laughing about it. He was hit by a trolleybus in Ewell Rd Surbiton whilst walking in the road during the blackout and died in Surbiton Hospital of his injuries. Sorry but I know nothing of Berkshire at all so dont know where those places are. Perhaps some of the Lovelock Listers do. Sincerely Sian _________________________________________________________________ It's fast, it's easy and it's free. Get MSN Messenger today! http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger
Michelle, it maybe me thats wrong. I picked a James in the 1851 census but he is 13 and born in Childrey with siblings Ann William George Jane and John. Cant find them in 1861 but in 1871 I have John and Harriet in Sparshot with Charles and Esther aged 14 and 19. I have been in contact with Charles Grandson. His daughter Alice was born in 1903 and her son is Ronald Sheppard. He thought we were the same family but maybe we are wrong. It was the only one I thought fitted but the age and place of birth are wrong although that can alter on each census in my experience with my side of the family. I am now having grave doubts what do you think Best wishes >From: michelle lovelock <[email protected]> >To: sian davies <[email protected]> >Subject: Re: Frederick John Lovelock >Date: Sun, 19 Sep 2004 13:30:20 +0100 (BST) > >Hmmm, possible some of my tree is wrong then - I do have James and Jane nee >Bruid as Frederick's parents, but I had a James and Mary as James' parents. >This info came from trawling through the census returns for 1851 - all the >Lovelocks from census are on the Lovelock Family History website, >helpfully. >I could only find one James Lovelock aged 10, with parents James and Mary, >in Shaw, Berks. >I had James dob as circa 1839/40 as in the 1891 census he is recorded as >age 51 born Wantage, Berks.

I wondered why the bapt of Jennet Powell ~1823 was not found in IGI. Well it's not under Powell, but Morgan - but if the name Morgan was unknown it would not be found!! IGI assumed that the parents were married. When I took my notes at PRO some 25 years ago I did not record that the baby was illeg - maybe it just did not say. As that was the only one I noted I don't know if the mother's maiden name was given if married. John Dixon
James, your twin theory re Catherine & Wm b 1891 is busted!! I've checked my original handwritten refs (left out of the BMD list). Catherine is 782 and WA is 775 - both of course 11a like all others! Twins would normally have the same ref!! or at worst be 1 page different. I have been going through my BMD doc adding refs to 1901 census etc in blue. So in due course I will send it to you, James to "edit". My old notes: My fleeting visit to Chisledon Wilts Ch yd 24-9-1983 (no photos): John Loveluck who departed this life March 21 1764 (?1794?) aged 67 about 4th grave on right up path from gate nearby graves were largely illegible, but names seem unrelated, King, Pearce, Crook. NOTE Graham's date for 1763 is presumably 1763/4 - but 21 March was the change over! John's age is 63 in Wilts BurI, 65 from Graham and 67 from the gravestone - but that was not in very good nick. Its been on the cards for 20 +years that this John may be the father of our John ~1739! We still don't seem to have connected the London Lovelucks (Henry etc). Also there is a Catherine Elizabeth Loveluck bur Lewisham 17-3-1841 age 23 (list on www). I have found the area in the ch yd where the grave is (was), but the stones/tombs are so poor. Next door the Register Office were unable to find her death cert making the excuse there were too many districts!! It took them 3 weeks even with the book number from a short birth cert of my Aunt Daisy b 1910 to get her birth & death certs. She lived just 1 day, but a photo survives. Her father was away in Oz! So I'll have to get the CEL death cert from Southport, but this may not give a clue where she came from! I'd tidied up the set of B&W photos I have of the Maudlam graves taken about 30 years ago (I think they were mine - some were underexposed - they were B&W so before 1971) and a couple from Margam Abbey, which came from Janet H (only one found at pres!). Do you have prints or notes of these James? I don't seem to have a doc listing the details either. FOUND THEM! So I've now made a Word doc from 1858 to ~1980 of the will index entries and the occasional extra detail where I've seen the will, but can't fine the later will summaries -yet - do you want these James or anyone else? They give more info than in my BMD doc, which James has in any case curtailed for his web site.

Hi Graham and all, Its me. Remember I couldnt find anything on my husbands grandfather Frederick John Lovelock. Well he was born in Chelworth, Crudwell Wilts as were 3 of his siblings that I know about. The younger children were born in Shinfield Berks. Their father James was born in Childrey Wantage and his father John in Westcote Berks. I cannot seem to tie him into any of the Wiltshire lines so am still searching for his parents/siblings. I hope you received my husbands family tree sent as promised at Lovelocks Aliive. Love the newsletter and will be subscribing.

Well spotted, Robin. It's good to have a real detective joining the team. I have received no messages either on or off list on this one. I believe your suggestion that John was the son of Thomas and Catherine and the husband of Clara is correct. He died (I have the Certificate) on 22 Feb 1881 as I said, and in the next Census Return Clara entered herself as a widow. I didn't spot the Pewsey entry for them in either 1861 or 1871, did anybody else? I'm still wondering about Emma Stagg. She lived in the High Street in Pewsey, as did John and Clara, but there are no house numbers available. At the time of John's death Emma was probably a widow - she certainly was by the time of the Census. But her occupation was Charwoman, so it seems odd that she should report the death, although according to the Certificate she was present. She was aged 42 in 1881, an age which doesn't seem to fit with being a local Lovelock daughter before marriage, so perhaps she just saved Clara the distress of reporting her husband's death. If Catherine died in 1867 as seems likely, we will expect to pick her up eventually in 1861, but so far obviously haven't ........ unless any on the List knows differently?

Hello everyone - especially Graham (for reasons which will emerge). Leafing through some papers I noticed that some time ago (date uncertain!)

Hi all Finally got back to follow-up emails on this line. This line is looking very good and may still run further. I found Helen Norton's contribution particularly helpful. The Marriage Bond established two interesting things. The John who married Elizabeth Cheeker came from Swindon and may have been born there and that he was probably born about 1714 or a bit earlier. Pity that the Bond only gives the age and marital status of Elizabeth Checker/Cheeker. If he was in fact a widower, he would of course have been much older. However, there was a John L bp at Swindon in 1713 Father John. And indeed a likely marriage of his father John to an Elizabeth Wilde in 1697 and several siblings - Mary, Catherine and Ann. John L bp at Swindon is also more likely to have been the one buried at Wroughton in 1767 aged 51 - although the age is three years out. Which is of course what Graham had in the first place. If this is correct, this would push back Graham's Wroughton/Tidcombe line another generation! The dates of baptisms of the children of John L and Elizabeth Wilde suggest some other children should be about somewhere. If they married in 1697 and had children approx every two years as is commonly the case, we have quite a few missing, including possibly a Leonard bn abt 1715 who died at Wroughton in 1806 at the ripe old age of 91. 1698? 1700? 1702 - Ann 1705 - Mary 1708 - Catherine 1711 - ? 1713 - John 1715 - Leonard? Could this marriage at Chiseldon be that of Ann bp at Swindon above? 1728/29 Feb 18 Henry HERRING of Stratton St Margret's and Ann LOVELOCK of Swindon Also a Chiseldon connection perhaps? After all it is right next door to Wroughton! And a very convenient burial. 1763 Mar 24 John Loveluck aged 65 Could this be the missing burial of John L bp 1697 on the Lyneham line? Could this burial at Chisledon 1714 Sep 23 Kathern Luvlock be Catherine bp 1708 at Swindon? I think we can also place a few other Wroughton burials into the tree as well. Most of these relate to an earlier email with Graham but the tree I have doesn't appear to have been updated. Unless I have the wrong version!? The John buried 1741/42 is almost certainly the John bp 1740 to John and Elizabeth Cheeker/Checker as they baptised a second John in 1744. Mary L buried 1834 aged 76 (bn abt 1758) is probably Mary Carpenter. Mary buried 1807 aged 62 (bn abt 1745) may have been Mary bn 1742 to John L and Elizabeth Cheeker/Checker or alternatively a wife called Mary of John bp 1747. The burial of John L in 1785 is almost certainly is probably John L bp 1785 to Thomas L and Mary Carpenter. And his brother who was baptised in 1778 is probably the Joh buried in 1780. The burial of Ann L in 1827 age 7 is probably Ann L bp 1819 to James L and Lucy Ball. The burial of Leonard L in 1795 is probably Leonard bp 1795 to Thomas and Mary Carpenter - and another reason for thinking that John L and Elizabeth Wilde had a son called Leonard. Also on a the matter of Leonard bn abt 1715, it is likely that this is the same Leonard who married in Cliffe Pappard in 1743 and was baptising children in Tidcombe between 1746 and 1754. And indeed, as Graham observed, the Mary who was buried in Tidcombe in 1806 may well have been Leonard's wife Mary Carpenter. But I think I should stop there and let others on the list see what they think of all this.
