Hi All I have just purchased the latest LDS CDs for British Isles vol 2. This includes all those for vol 1 plus a few million additional births and marriages extacted from PRs by the Mormons. Will be checking for Lovelocks when I get a moment. Will be sharing of course via the Lovelock list in due course. Best wishes Robert

Dear Ruth Congratulations on your excellent research so far. You have already clearly traced your family back to James Lovelock and Hannah Newman who were married in 1780 at Crondall in Wiltshire. That's not a bad effort for someone who says they're new to family history. Of course you did have a big head start with the excellent website that James Loveluck has put together and the wonderful research by all the Lovelock family historians involved who are so freely sharing information. It rarely happens that way, so you are very fortunate. I had a look to see if I could see a baptism of James say abt 1759 or earlier in the Crondall area. This baptism in Crondall caught my eye: 1763 Dec 5 Mary d. James & Martha Lovelock This could conceivably be a sibling. The fact that James and Martha had no other children baptised in Crondall, probably indicates that they baptised other children in a parish nearby - or were non-conformists eg Baptists. It would be very unusual in those days to have only one child. This burial is likely the burial of Hannah Newman at Crondall: 1822 Jul 17 Hannah Lovelock, 63, wife of James, Crookham She would then have been born abt 1759. So her husband James may have been born a couple of years before then, say 1757. Crookham may be a clue. Crookham is of course in Berkshire not far from Thatcham. On the border of the two counties, adjacent Hampshire. But a fair way from Crondall I think. Perhaps others on the list can advise. If I were you, I'd be looking for James' baptism in parishes around Crondall: Yately, Aldershot, Bentley, Froyle, Long Sutton, Odiham, Dogmersfield, Winchfield, Elvetham. Not all these parishes have been searched, or, even where they have, the relevant years haven't been. However,this looks a very good possibility: Long Sutton Baptisms There are baptisms in the IGI: 1756 May 2 James s. James Lovelock & Martha Tillman 1757 Nov 27 Martha d. James Lovelock & Martha Tillman 1759 May 20 William s. James Lovelock & Martha Tillman This marriage looks good: Long Sutton Marriages (Phillimores Marriage Index) *1755 Dec 1 James Lovelock and Martha Tillman These baptisms look good too: Dogmersfield Baptisms 1695-1911 (PR) Kindly supplied by Mike and Alison Turner 1761 May 20 Elizabeth d. James & Martha Lovelock 1765 Dec 29 Job s. James & Martha Lovelock 1772 Jun 21 Hannah d. James Lovelock and Martha Let's see what others on the list think? The very best for your research, Robert Sterry ---------------------------------------- Lovelock Web Site: www.ri.silicomp.fr/~loveluck/genealogy/lovelock

Hi! My name is Maureen and I have just discovered all my Lovelock relatives. My great grandmother MARTHA LOVELOCK daughter of JAMES LOVELOCK and ELIZABETH MASLEN is my connection. She married THOMAS WICKS somewhere in Wiltshire and they emigrated to NEW ZEALAND where they settled in GROVETOWN, BLENHEIM, NELSON. I'm in the process of trying to trace both Thomas Wicks and Elizabeth Maslen. Thomas Wicks is proving really hard to find. He was born in Wiltshire round 1857 and married Martha 29 September 1878 in Wiltshire. Can anyone help? Also I'd like to thank my 7th cousin GRAHAM LOVELOCK for being such a good friend and mentor and replying to my query that led me to the Lovelock Line. I'm eternally grateful Graham. Regards, MAUREEN GAFFEY.. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp.

Hello Sorry! I ment to say that South Warnburrow was part of Odiham. Phoebe was married in Hartley Wintney. The others were married in Crondall. Regards, Ruth Flint

Hello I have only been doing this a few months too. I still have a lot to learn. I have been lucky with my Hampshire families(my Dad's father side) and I am back to parish registers. My problem is getting more details on my dads uncles and aunts as this is what he is interested in. However they were not Lovelocks at that point. The most recent of my branch was Phoebe Lovelock who married William Dicker 1850. Her parents were Daniel Lovelock who married Elizabeth Canderton 30 Sep 1820. Daniel's father was James Lovelock who married Hannah Newman 1780. Daniel's marriage states that he was of South Warnburrow which I believe is in the parish of Crondall. I have directed this to the list so that I do not have to repeat myself. Thanks for replying Regards, Ruth Flint -----Original Message----- From: VMiles062@aol.com [mailto:VMiles062@aol.com] Sent: 08 May 2002 16:31 To: ruthflint@hotmail.com Subject: Re: Hampshire Lovelocks Well, what branch?

Hello I am new to this list. Is any one out there researching the Hampshire Lovelocks. I have found a lot of info on the site so far but it would be great to find someone else researching the same branch. Regards, Ruth Flint

Hi Colin Welcome to the list! Do you know how you connect to any known Lovelock lines? Have you found the family in the 1881 census? Do you have their marriage certificate? If so, who was the Thomas' father and his occupation please. Who were the witnesses? Who was Maria's father and his occupation. Where was Maria lving at time of their marriage? Delighted to have you join us in our research endeavours. Best wishes Robert > My name is Colin.

Greetings Lovelock Listers I was at Kew on Saturday 27th April looking for records relating to my Grandfather William George Lovelock's Army service late 19th / early 20th C. Original documents for Lovelock are available for the period 1855-1913 ( PRO Ref: WO97/3317) and I noted all the enlistment documents they have. The papers include useful information on age, birthplace and next of kin together with details of postings, promotion and discharge. Alas my William was not there but I was successful in finding his reservist call up papers in 1914 on microfilm amongst First World War Soldiers Documents ( the ' Burnt Documents ' ) - only 40% of the WW1 records survived bombing in 1940 so I was fortunate that William's record was amongst them ( PRO Ref WO363/1017 & 1018 1017 Lovell William to Lovelock Frederick 1018 Lovelock Frederick to Loveluck Andrew ). The PRO are gradually filming the surviving documents. Anyway I thought other Lovelock researchers might find some of their descendants on this list and may even find a missing link!

Hi All Lovies My name is Colin. I am descended from Thomas LOVELOCK & Maria Jane BARKER, who were married at Tilehurst Berks 1874. Their 3rd daughter is Rose Alice born 27 Apr 1880, at 9 Charles St Reading Berks. They had a total of 10 children. 3 came to Australia, Rose was the only one to have children. Any & all info gratefully received. Regards Col

Great to hear from you Elvira. Thanks very much for your posting. I'm sure others on the list will be able to help you. I believe these are the baptisms of the children of John Lovelock and Fanny Green: Hurstbourne Tarrant Baptisms (LDS Vital Records British Isles 1546-1876) 1872 Jan28 William John s. John Lovelock and Fanny 1873 Mar 30 Emily Jane d. John Lovelock and Fanny 1874 Aug 16 Annie d. John Lovelock and Fanny 1876 Jan 23 Mary Anne d. John Lovelock and Fanny In order to establish John Lovelock's father's name you will need to find their marriage detail. I checked for the marriage of John Lovelock in the Civil Registration Index (GRO) for England and Wales. We have all Lovelock marriages extracted from 1837-1872. This entry looks likely: Year Surname Forenames Reg District Vol Page Qtr/Mo 1871 Lovelock John Andover 2c 435 4 The Registration District of Andover included the parish of Hurstbourne Tarrant. The marriage certificate will give you his father's name and occupation. You can order the certificate through the Family Records Centre in London or numerous professional agents. Others on the list may care to recommend someone more specific. Best wishes Robert Sterry

I thought I would let The List know of the status of my search for Francis Lovelock of Hungerford Newtown ( 1751 - 1834 ). My visit to Hungerford and Avington Church on Saturday 13th April was not particularly fruitful. The Local Library has a limited Local History collection and there is no evidence of any Lovelock graves or monuments at the delightful Norman Church of St Mary & St Luke in Avington. Hungerford Historical Association have sent me details on the history of Avington Manor and there is no reference to Lovelocks. Lady Howard Dewalden also has no knowledge of any Lovelock link. In Lovelocks in Berkshire on the Lovelock Web Site ( Hungerford PCC Wills ) there is reference to Francis Lovelock's father Edward and his Will dated 1780 which refers to his Freehold and Leased Property in Chipping Lambourne, Hidden ( possibly Hidden Farm ), West Shefford and Avington. Does anyone know where this Will can be seen? ( Berkshire Record Office do not appear to have a copy ). West Shefford is about 1 mile north of Lovelocks House and there is a possibility that Francis was buried here. Lovelocks House is now in Shefford Parish - the Parish Boundary changed after the M4 Motorway was built. Francis had an older sister Elizabeth ( of Avington ) and her Will dated 1785 ( again referenced under Hungerford ) refers to Francis. Avington was a Parish in its own right so it could be that Francis lived somewhere in this area. Does anyone on the Lovelock List have a copy of the Avington or Shefford Parish Registers on Microfiche? If so I would be grateful if you could check for any references to Francis - in particular his Burial. Did he marry? Were there any children from this Marriage? I am visiting Lovelocks House in June and would love to be able to explain to Major Hanbury why he has a carving in his Drawing Room dedicated to Francis Lovelock. Any assistance from Lovelock Listers would therefore be gratefully received.

Hi all As you have probably gathered, John Lovelock and myself believe we have made a major breakthrough in researching the earliest generation of the Berkshire Lovelock line - thanks in no small part to Helen Norton! We have put together a proposed search strategy based on the latest findings. We would really appreciate any ideas or suggestions from other members of the Lovelock list. It's a bit long for email but I can't send atachments to the list. So apolgies for size of file. Many thanks in anticipation of your valued thoughts. Robert Sterry _______________________________________________ PROPOSED SEARCH STRATEGY FOR JOHN LOVELOCK WHO MARRIED ELIZABETH WOOLFE John Lovelock married Elizabeth Woolfe on 3 Oct 1739 at St Mary, Berkshire Reading. We know, from a ‘Settlement Examination’ dated 3 Oct 1739 at the Borough of Reading, that John Lovelock was born in Burghfield, Berkshire. Presumably, his marriage on the same day was connected to the settlement examination and his ‘settlement’ may have been conditional on it. Establishing place of legal settlement was important if one wished to receive parish poor relief (the equivalent of our modern ‘dole’ or ‘unemployment benefits’.) So it is likely that John Lovelock was seeking parish relief at the time. Four years later, in a Settlement Certificate dated 26 Oct 1743, John, his wife Elizabeth and his three children at that time, John, Lucy and Dorcas (spelt ‘Darkis’ on Certificate), were stated as legally settled in the parish of South Stoke, Oxfordshire. The 1743 Settlement Certificate was addressed to the Church Wardens and Overseers of the Poor at St Marys, Reading. Presumably John and his family were still living at the time at Reading and were seeking to remain there. We do not know when John Lovelock was born, who his parents were or where he was buried. However, we do know from his Settlement Examination that ‘he was hired for 4 years to Thomas Jennes of Woodcott in the parish of South Stoke in the County of Oxon with whom he lived as a servt (servant?) for the space of two years and saith that he hath not gained any settlement since his service at Stoke as aforesaid’. Elizabeth Woolfe was born about 1718 and baptized at St Mary, Reading on 31 Aug 1718. She was probably buried at St Mary, Reading on 5 Aug, 1767. There is no record of John Lovelock having been also buried there. John and Elizabeth first child, John Lovelock, was also named John. He was baptized 2 Jul 1739 at St Mary, Reading and was born illegitimate. John is the only known male descendent of John and Elizabeth Lovelock. He married in 1779 at Wallingford St Mary le More, Berkshire and was buried there in 1817. We do not know what became of John and Elizabeth’s daughter, Lucy, who was also baptized at St Mary, Reading on 1 Feb, 1740/41. Dorcas died when she was about 16 and was buried in 1759 at St Mary Reading. John and Elizabeth had five other known children: Martha, Mathew, Elizabeth I, James and Elizabeth II. However, only Martha, who was baptized at St Mary Reading on 3 Oct 1745, survived. We do not know what happened to her. There is a Lovelock family at: Burghfield Baptisms John Lovelock located the following entries in the Burghfield PRs: 1702 Dec 7 Elizabeth d. of Richard & Elizabeth Lovelock 1704 Jan 25 Laetitia d. of Richard & Elizabeth Lovelock 1705 Feb 19 Mary d. of Richard & Elizabeth Lovelock 1717 Sep 23 Richard s. of Richard & Elizabeth Lovelock The following baptisms are in the IGI: 1702 Dec ? Elizabeth LOVELOCK, Father: Richard LOVELOCK Mother: Elizabeth 1704 Jun 25 Laetitia LOVELOCK, Father: Richard LOVELOCK Mother: Elizabeth 1705 Feb 19 Mary LOVELOCK, Father: Richard LOVELOCK Mother: Elizabeth 1717 Sep 23 Richd LOVELOCK, Father: Richd LOVELOCK Mother: Elizabeth 1813 Jun 27 Thomas LOVELOCK, Father: James LOVELOCK Mother: Lucy Burghfield Marriages John Lovelock located the following entries in the Burghfield PRs: 1726 Sep 21 Elizabeth Lovelock and Henry Frewin Burghfield Burials John Lovelock located the following entries in the Burghfield PRs: 1704 Jul 31 ____ d. of Richard Lovelock 1735 Mar 28 Richard Lovelock 1744 Feb 19 Elizabeth Lovelock This is very likely to be John Lovelocks family. But we still have to prove it! Fellow researcher John Lovelock also checked the Burghfield registers. However, there is no sign of any John Lovelock baptism about 1718 at Burghfield. The baptism entry may have been lost or he may have been baptized in parishes surrounding Burghfield. The contiguous parishes to Burghfield are Tilehurst, Reading St Mary, Reading St Giles, Shinfield, Sulhampstead Abbots, Stratfield Mortimer and Sulhampstead Bannister. Nearby Englefield is also a possibility. These parishes have been searched as follows: Tilehurst (Baptisms 1700-1813, Marriages 1700-1808 and Burials 1700-1813 - PR) No Lovelocks. Reading, St Mary(Baptisms 1538 -1812 [PRs]; Marriages 1538 -1754 [PRs] 1754-1812 [BTs]; Burials 1538 - 1641, 1653 - 1880[PRs] ) Reading, St Giles(Baptisms 1564-1812 [PRs]; Marriages 1564-1812 [PRs]; Burials 1564-1812 [PRs] ) John Lovelock searched for the baptism of John Lovelock abt 1718 at Shinfield, Sulhampstead Abbots and Sulhampstead Banister without success. Shinfield has not been extensively searched but the following baptism for Shinfield is in the IGI: 1782 Jan 6 Hannah LOVELOCK, Father: John LOVELOCK Mother: Hannah Sulhampstead Abbots has not been extensively searched but the following baptisms for Sulhampstead Abbots are in the IGI: 1669 May 2 Sarah LOVELOCK, Father: Edward LOVELOCK 1673 Mar 27 Mary LOVELOCK, Father: Edward LOVELOCK Mother: Sarah Sulhampstead Banister has not been extensively searched but the following baptisms for Sulhampstead Abbots are in the IGI: 1660 Nov 25 John LOVELOCK, Father: Edward LOVELOCK 1664 Mar 27 Edward LOVELOCK, Father: Edward LOVELOCK 1666 Nov 1 Thomas LOVELOCK Father: Edward LOVELOCK 1669 May 2 Sarah LOVELOCK Father: Edward LOVELOCK Stratfield Mortimer has not been searched. We may never of course find John Lovelock’s baptism to establish any link to the Burghfield Lovelocks. So we may need to look to other sources of information – in particular, parish records. Fellow researcher John Lovelock has already had the Berkshire Record Office search the Poor Law Records for Burghfield. These have been surname indexed. No Lovelocks are mentioned at all. However, Richard Lovelock, who is almost certainly Richard Lovelock above, appears as a witness on a Settlement Certificate for Burghfield for Thomas Adams and his wife Elizabeth dated 1716. Apart from Poor Law Records, it would also be worth checking Overseer’s accounts, churchwarden’s accounts and vestry minutes (if they exist) for any mention of John and Elizabeth Lovelock and their family in the parishes of St Mary, Reading and South Stoke and the same for Richard and Elizabeth Lovelock in Burghfield 1700-1750. I have for some time been searching other parish registers in this area of Berkshire and any nearby parishes in Oxfordshire (which have not been checked via modern transcriptions) for the baptism of John Lovelock abt 1718. I have complied a proposed search list as follows: Berkshire Sulham Pangbourne Englefield Sonning Moulsford Streatley Basildon Oxfordshire Newnham Murren Rotherfield Peppard All except Rotherfield Peppard are available on film through the Mormons. All are PRs except Sulham for which only Bishop’s Transcripts have been filmed. Pangbourne has already been ordered and is currently waiting for me. Fellow researcher John Lovelock recently checked the modern transcription for Newnham Murren for John and Elizabeth Lovelock and his family without any success. Helen Norton has already checked the PRs for Sonning. Between John and myself I believe it would be therefore worth checking parish registers between 1680 and 1775 (at least) for Sulham, Englefield, Moulsford, Basildon (Berks) and Rotherfield Peppard (Oxon) for any sign of the baptism of John Lovelock abt 1718 (NB: John could have been born as late as 1723 or as early as 1700) and marriages of daughters Lucy and Martha Lovelock and the marriage of John’s possible parents Richard and Elizabeth Lovelock. If we want to include a search for John Lovelock’s burial we should extend the search range to 1800. Robert Sterry 19/04/02

Hello Allen, Attached is all I have on Evan John (Jones) and Mary Loveluck. As you'll see, I also struggled with the patronymic variations!

Good evening, all I have had an enquiry off-list regarding an Elizabeth Lovelock who was married somewhere in the Basingstoke Registration District in the January/March quarter of 1869. Does anybody have any idea who and where she might have married? Was it a Walter Windiate? Regards Graham

Hi All Have now completed extracting Lovelocks plus a few marriage offspring from Sparsholt BTs. Quite a bit more than in IGI. Bear in mind these are from BTs so some years missing. Interesting transitions in spelling of Lovelake, Lovelock and Loveluck. Presumeably pronounced very similarly in local accent. I have copied spelling exactly as per BTs. As follows: Sparsholt Baptisms 1607, 1616, 1617, 1620-1624, 1631, 1635, 1665-1730, 1752-1835 (BTs) 1758 Jul 2 Edward son of Charles Lovelake & Jane his Wife of Westcott 1760 Apr 27 Mary Daughter of Charles Lovelake & Jane his wife of Westcott 1762 Feb 7 Martha daughter of Charles Lovelake of Westcott & Jane his wife 1762 Jun 13 William son of John Lovelake & Christian his Wife of Westcott 1764 Mar 18 Richard son of Charles Lovelake & Jane his wife of Westcott 1764 Sep 9 Elizabeth daughter of John Lovelake & Christian his wife of Westcot 1766 Mar 2 Esther Daughter of Charles Lovelake & Jane his Wife of Westcot 1767 Apr 5 Charles son of John Lovelake & Christian his wife of Westcot 1768 Jan 17 Susanna Daughter of Charles Lovelake & Jane his Wife of Westcot 1769 Jul 23 Richard son of John & Christian Lovelake of Sparsholt 1769 Dec 31 Susanna Daughter of Charles & Jane Lovelake of Westcot 1786 Dec 27 William Lovelake base born son of Elizabeth Lovelake privly baptized 1786 Aug 13 William Lovelake son of William & Ann his wife of Westcott baptized 1789 Dec 25 Joseph Lovelake son of William & Hannah his wife was baptized 1790 Dec 12 Jane Vight(?)
