Many thanks to all who have been helping me find the birthplace of Frederick John. I now have his birth certificate and he was born in Chelworth. Registration District Malmesbury. Whilst I was in hospital I had an email from Paul asking if Frederick might be linked to his ancestors from Shipton Mallet. As my son deleted the email before I got home I have been unable to reply. If you would get in touch again Paul I can email you. You must be thinking me very rude! Graham who has been so helpful thinks this maybe a new line. Frederick's parents were James Lovelock and Jane Bruid or possibly Brerid, the middle bit is a bit difficult to read in the copper plate writing, but it is definitely Br id and he was born 20th August 1870. I have booked The Bear and am looking forward to meeting more of the family next year. Sincerely Sian
