Hi Tony, This is interesting! I believe both William and Martha (Jane's parents) died before 1901. In fact it seems that Martha died before 1891 since she was not present at the 1891 census: Ty Fry East Margam William Loveluck age 40, widow, farmer Mary Loveluck age 12, dau. Thomas Loveluck age 9, son John Loveluck age 6, son Jane Loveluck age 3, dau. I have Martha died 1890 and WIlliam died 1891 Cornelly, Pyle & Kenfig (source Janet Hearle). Janet Hearle also had a younger daughter Gladys born after Jane (presumably after the 1891 census) married ? Cooker but I haven't found her on FreeBMD. It's strange that she wasn't with her elder brothers and sister with the Rchards family. I'm not sure what happened to the elder sister Mary, who would have been 22 at the 1901 census. Did she marry?
