Hi James, Robert & All, Thank you for the welcome to the list. Thank you also Robert for confirming my thoughts re Mary Lovelock(Martin). This is particularly comforting as this Mary was my GrtX6 Grandmother! ;-) In answer to your question James, she married under the surname Martin in 1760. I do have a copy of the marriage record - let me know if you want it. I believe her husband John Goddard died in 1795 in WR, but I cannot trace a death/burial for Mary at this moment in time. The last child I have recorded for them was baptised in 1776 in WR (they had 8 children in total), so I can only confirm it was some time after that. A Goddard contact of mine is fairly convinced that John Goddard remarried in 1779 in WR to Ann Blackman, so obviously one would assume Mary had died prior to that date. But there does not appear to be a burial for her in WR and I have had this checked right up to 1840! (My Goddard contact does not have a burial for Mary either!) Does anyone know how complete the Wootton Rivers parish records are?, as in, is it known that some records are missing? or are they specifically known to be complete? Any thoughts welcomed. I am now trying to work out which Lovelock line her father, John, might have belonged to - and if anyone has any theories please let me know. Incidentally I am also descended from another Lovelock branch; Sarah Lovelock bpt.16.09.1849 (dau of Thomas and Martha Lovelock of Pewsey) was a GG Grandmother of mine. She married Thomas Lay on 22nd July 1879 in Pewsey and had 10 children with him. So you can see it was probably high time I joined in with your Lovelock listing. Regards Simone. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Thu, 5 Oct 2006 1:42 AM Subject: Re: [LOVELOCK] Mary Lovelock (Martin) - Wootton Rivers Greetings Simone Great to see you posting to the list. As a matter of fact, I think you have indeed found an error in the Wootton Rivers Tree 2. I have checked my original extractions from the parish register for Wootton Rivers and you are quite correct - there is no burial at Wootton Rivers for a Mary Lovelock in 1738. Thank you very much for checking and letting us know. Best wishes with your research. Hopefully we'll see many more of your posts to the list.
