I have just joined this group and thought it useful to introduce myself. My name is Gary Chaffey and I work at the local archives office in Yorkshire, England. I am picking up where my mother left off on the research of part of my family tree. My mother's maiden name was Loveless and it is this line, among others, I am interested in. My mothers father was Thomas Harry Loveless (b1912 at Lymington) who married Jessie Eugene Sarah Etheridge at St Andrews, Bournemouth in 1936. Thomas Harry Loveless was the son of Harry Loveless (b1886 at Dorchester) who married Florence Marsh at Boscombe in 1911. Harry Loveless was the son of Thomas Loveless(or lace) (bapt 1846 at Fordington) who married Elizabeth Pitfield at Fordington in 1875. Thomas Loveless was the son of Joseph and Jane Loveless(lace). I know that Joseph was directly related to the Tolpuddle Martyrs line but I am currently at work and cant remember the connection. Well that’s me in a nutshell any information/contacts would be greatly appreciated. Gary Chaffey __________________________________________________ Yahoo!

Gary - welcome to the Tolpuddle Mailing List. I know that you will find the people on this list to be friendly and very helpful. Please be advised that I do allow funnies as on this list we're not only fellow genealogists but are also friends and we help each other. I for one am interested in your possible connection to the Tolpuddle Martyrs as my 5 X great-grandfather John Loveless was also connected to the Tolpuddle Martyrs.
