I have a Freelove Sprague, a Freelove Whipple, and a Freelove Allen in my family & have seen the name over & over again on others' information. Freelove didn't refer to the same thing it did in the 1960's per your E-mail, it was a quality revered as something given by God to Man - it was used just as freely & just as often as names like Patience, Faith, Hope, Experience, Charity, and like those qualities it represented a gift from God. -----Original Message----- From: George Whaley [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, February 12, 2000 10:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: James & Freelove Whaley [was: pls forward to whaley list.] This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------2ADECF63BAF663B09A60DEDD Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Anyone recognize this James and Freelove Whaley?

The james whaley who married ruth wilson and had all those kids one kid was names james who married a freelove foster, and i came across a freelove whaley in the 1840 cencus still in town of hempstead. she must of out lived james. but i figure that has to be her, because how many people went around naming their kids freelove back then? maybe in the 1960's the name was more common but not then. she can be found on 179. just an fyi, kristina --------------2ADECF63BAF663B09A60DEDD--
