Graham, I think you have struck gold! Your James Lovelock was the father of my Great-great-grandfather, James Lovelock b 1819, older brother of your William, b 1836. I have traced the family back to Noah Lovelock, born about 1701. All the families in that area are descended from him, but I can't find him anywhere I was brought up in Chertsey, where there are still Lovelocks and their connections, so I know Ottershaw pretty well. Please give me a call on 0118 988 6106 and we can perhaps get together to sort things out and give you all the information. Regards Mary Perry (nee Lovelock)
