Across the Bays to the north, in Chaljyes County, Marviand, other Lovelaces vere becoming settled. According to Brumbaugh, John, 5 muel and Luke Lovelace were granted lands in Charlies County, 1728. ~A grant to Samuel and Luke «qeant under date of Dec. 25, 1741, and to Jonn under the same date, and also on August 20, 1745. John Baptist . Lovelace, pushing further towards the frontier, acquired Hermi- tage in 1662, in what was then Frederick Co., but later Montgomery. When he died in 1765 he left Hermitage to his widow Eleanor during life after which it was to go to sons William, Luke and Elias, in rt, and remainder to son Charlies. Isaac was to have 121 »cres in Charles County. This will is at Frederick, Md. John Lovelace geems to have died intestate in Charles Cosy 1775, and Tgenatine and John are said to have been sons. Qne can but be impressed with the similarity of family names as they appear in Maryland and Virginia, and in their progeny which later appeared in the Carolinas, Kentucky, arid other parts of the South and Midwest. The theory that has been advanced that the Maryland Love- laces were descended from Francis Lovelace, Colonial Governor of New York, seems to have been negatived by J. Hall Pleasants in e very Gateful article in the Nv. Y. Genealogical and Biorraphital Record, 1920, pp. 175 ff...A shorter account by the same writer an pears in the Virginie Magazine of History. But Francis Lovelece belonged to the family of Lovelaces who founded Lovelace Place at Bethersden, Kent, in 1367. A re- lated family was the family wee-t?frt at Hurley, which also furs nished a Governor of New York, who died soon after arriving,/Sir John Lovelace. It may be the descent is from the Hurley line not directly from Sir. John. In reading the other day account of Charies W. Lovelece in Vol. 2, at vages 918-19, of History of Wyandotte, Kans., I was impressed that the tradition of descent from a distinguished family had survived generations of pilgrimages from the eastern shores of Maryland and Viraénia across the Midwest to dusty Mansas.

I have dated and have initialed them in red ink. Two ef them I hed elready recorded, Thanks so very much fwr your approval of Mrs. Queen's ability. Mr. Smith refered her to m as a person interested in checking data.

I surely do not want to ask Mrs. Queen ror any information that you have already so generously given. In a few days I shall write her a letter asking for specific information. Of course right now I'm trying te get my great grandfather, Charles son of Thomss & Amelia Dyson straighten out, I will] send her a copy of the information that I sent you so that she wil] have something te start on, dL. have learned that Mr. John Griswold, White Hall, 11]. is president of the Greene County Historical Society MK, He is a descendant of Charles, I am almost sure; so, maybe I cen get some of the Levelace history that had its setting in Ii]. Mr. E.A-Batty, Ce.

I have written to Mr. Griswold. To me the Fannin Co., Census Record is the most revealing instrument re: 6harles that I have. During thet day that I checked Census Records in the Library in Dallas, Texas I found other substanting evidence of Charles having lived in North Carolina through the birth of several of his children, Allen M Lovelace was born 10/25/1825 according te his Marker in the Brown Cemetery - this is the buriel pert for Charles and Rebecca, The cen- sus for him and his family shows that he was born in N.C.

August 23, 1956. Dear Mr. Swann: The Lovelace papers are on their way back to dirs. Heard. Interesting. lLovelaces had as much affinity, for Holmans as for Robeys or Dents for Dysons. Elias Lovelace married Ann Robey in 1776, as shown by his pension pepers (Catawba Frontier). I am very curious about Henry Lazenby end the grand jury. I have no recollection of having heard of it, and I have nothing here to that effect - he was for me the most elusive of the three Lazenby brothers. James of Joshua seemed to be on fe jury of some sort about 1834 - anti-Andrew Jackson. Am sorry I don't seem to find a copy of Anstyex Danie! Lewis's will. The thing that still plagues me about it is his son Ephraim. Sunk without a trace. I have wondered if Ran Lovelace (Randolph) and his sisters joined their uncle somewhere. Note simi- larity of his mame with the clinic Lovelaces. This day I dig up Thomas Belt and make a beginning on a final sketch. I will be glad to pay somebody for a good picture of his house. Do you know of anybody locally who can do it? Probably a man from Statesville would Be costly.

This new listing makes better sense, I hope, Yes, I am intensely interested in the Lovelaces and the Lortons and the Baogarleys as wel] as other connections in or near White Hell, Ill, My father spent one year in the home of relatives there and I have heard him talk so much about his experiences, Charles Lovelace, father of Martin B. Lovelace, my paternal grandfather, must have lgeft the home of his parents, Thomas & Amelie Dyson Lovelace, at a very young age. He married his second wife, Rebecog Ann Morrow, probably in 111 on 4/12/1821. The 1850 Census taken in Texas shows that the children of Charles and Rebecca Ann Morrow had been born before the move to Texas. I'm extrememly interested in the background of Rebecca Ann Morrow, Is there @ record of any Morrows in N,C? My Aunt Elle Gale who had the Charles Lovelece BIBLE in San Antonio, Tex when I made my copy of the family data, told me that as she remembered the story all of the children of Charles & Rebecca Lovelace were born in Til, Charles was the father of Aunt File Gale Her mother was born Louise Agnes Sims in Ky. Louisa finst married a Lair. The family moved to Fannin Co,, when the five children were small. ‘Younger Leir died and his widow married Charles Lovelace several years after the death of Rebecce Ann Morrow Lovelace, Aunt Elle was — a daughter of Loujge & Cherles.

I am still too lazy to try to meke a garden, not even a flowere garden. We have such poor soil here in town. My daddy always said that it wes to full of alkalie, We rent al] of the farm land for money rent as we found that more profitable than crop rentals, Thanks so very much for the information on Uncle Archie, If you don't mind, I would ep- preciate having the names of people to whom I may write for church data on the family as well as any other spice of life type of information that I may be able to get. I wonder if Miss Prather left her information that she hee collected on the Lovelace family so thet it may be passed on, Recently, I have been reading records down at the courthouse. Some of theclerks are long time acquaintances so they are very helpful. I believe that my great grandfather, Charles as well as his brother, William, were really land hungry, Each must have owned more than a section of land. [I haven't yet gone to the tax records, I was so amused in Charles learning that some fellow owed taxes (state and county combined on 160 acres of land in the far southeast corner of the county was $1.75). This man said that he had no intentions of paying the taxes so the land was put up for sale. My great grand-father paid $5.75 for the 160 acres, at public sale. Finally, I have located all but one of his children. Several people are helping me. I have had several responses to my as in the Mormon publication, The Genealogical Helper. I'm sending you a copy of my reply to one of them. I sincerely hope thet Miss Johnson won't mind my using her information. Te]] Mrs. Bradford that I have hopes of learning something of the Lovelaces who came to the counties to the west and south of here. A younger person than I who makes his home in La Jolla, Celifornia has been most helpful. A cousin of mine who lives, in California sent me a list of names from the telephone book, He is the only one who responded, Mrs. Dgle Lovelace got my name from the Genealogical Helper. She thinks that she is of the Vachel Lovelace line. I believe that James Ross Lovelace of La Jolla, Calif will prove to be of the family that Mrs. Bradford wes asking me about, He was quite successful in getting informatio from a daughter of Mrs. Stone, Paris, Ky.

No, I do not think the Doctors Lovelace derive from the Texas ones. He says his folks went to Springfield from Ky. It must have been after 1870, as census throws no light. I thought just hold the letter and other parts of the puzzle mey fiii i4 01 when they come in. At Halifax, Virginia, were Lovelaces, and some of them made names for themselves in Montgomery County, Mo. Whether these were from the Maryland Lovelaces I do not certainly know. One was on the Mo. Supreme Court when he died in 1866. His name was Walter and he apnears in 1860 census thus: Ww. Le Lovelace be Vae 2ged 29 Lewyer Elizabeth be Moe V9 Arthur, aged 6; William, °%; an infant. Then there was John N. Lovelace, be Vae, aged 39. Farmer. Ann, te Bs Cs * 34 4 children. Then there was a brother of the judge, William Ce, who edited a paper at Danville. I did not find him in census. 27 and In the Virginie Merazine of History, Vols. 28 anax® are some =, write-ups of the Lovelaces from encient. times in Siesex England, CG by Hall Pleasants 0 Baltimore, who seems to be descended from Anne daurhter of Sir Willier Lovelace, who married a clergyman naned Gorsuch. This was some 800 years ago. The sorsuches turned up Marylend. He says Sir Francis Lovelace, Colonisl Governor of New York while the English and Dutch were. fiehting in the 1660's, wes of this line wnd that Richard Lovelace wes a brother, both brothe: of Anne Gorsuch. I ‘now that Sir Francis was in Meryland for_he wi nesses © land transaction.

Box 514 Bonham, Texas 75418 Oct 30, 1969- Dear Mr. Swann, I just must tel] you of my most woncerfully good luck. Maybe I never did write about my cousin here in town who has never been Married and in his hwyday was a sort of man about town Selling the old Seth Thomas clock that my great grandparents, William & Sallie Holman Lovelace brought with them from N.C. in the 1850's, A sister to one of my sisters-in-law was with the Bouple who bought the clock and took it to their home in Odessa, Texas. I immediately got on the trail of the clock but had given up al) hopes of ever seeing it. Last week one morning a young lady called me from culphur Springs, Tex and told me that she Was on her way to Borham bringing me the clock. She is a daughter of the. man to whom my cousin had sold the clock and stil] had my letter that I had written trying yo trace the clock, joyed over getting it back. Since I typed the above, I have had to-day's mail. In it I received your material prepared by Mr, Newman; so, now I have another thrill. I'm wondering how I can go about proving who the brothers and sisters of John Bap tist were, I'm wondering if Mrs. Jean M Maire's benjamin Lovelace of Montgomery Co., Md, 0 ca 1727 could have . been a brother of John Baptist Lovelace, I will copy this grand material that you sent me to- day just as fast as I Can and return the original] to you, Thanks again a million As €ver, Miss Day Lovelace P, O, Box 514 Bonham, Texas 75418 PHILIP LOVELACE 1759-1236 kev War Soldier fron Feiriax Conty Va m Ann Frirze1(1800) on 28 Nov 1821 Fairfay Namef Charles County, Md c 1750 as olrt ry) place Dec. 16, 1969 Dear Mr Swann, My great thanks for Elias children, Wm's via Mrs. Heard, the brief from the Charles County, Md cases. As you can see from the reverse of this sheet, I solved nothing by going. through wills and land grants in P ince Ga which is reputed to have all of their records bviously 45 or so Lovelaces in Prince Ga between 1711 when Fustian,(Faustian -Fasnlin) bought land from George Jones and became a'Prince Ga planter' to the other Lovelaces who came up from Charles (Elinor wife of Thomas) and the unidentified Jane,2nd wife of John(?), and Luke and perhaps Wm circa 1770..all of whom were there in great pro- fusion according to the 1790 census.... .. certainly escaped ail hicag offialdem for over a century. fActually I can*t believe it, bi ! I did not read the wills because they were late ones only on fi originals still up at Annapolis being capied. Please note also the Philip pension quote which indicateds a number of Charles-Prince Ga. County Lovelace-Leveless unrecorded. It is possible that both of the early lines we have on this family are partially correct If it. is John Baptist, son of John, son of Thomas (with John having both a John Baptist died 1765 Frederick and a son John alive in 1775 Charles still to be explained) It may be also that a William and Francis (according to Judge Crowley ) are the earlier generations of the family Francis was in Charles in 1668 until August when he became Gov. of NY If a William were born c 1667, he would have been old enough to have a Thomas c 1687 to produce’a John c 1707.
