The Brimpton Branch

There are a number of possibilities relating to the progenitors of this fragment (Thomas Lovelock and Sarah Unknown), none of which may apparently be excluded by the existing evidence. They are :

1. That Thomas Lovelock was the man baptised at Hungerford in 1774, which would be consistent with his age at burial.
2. That Sarah was the Sarah Lane born at Thatcham in 1785, and that she married Thomas at Kingsclere in 1805.
3. That said Thomas had previously married Martha Dopson in 1802, despite there being no apparent burial of Martha in our records.
4. That the man who married Martha Dopson was the Thomas baptised at Ramsbury in 1781.
5. That the Thomas baptised at Ramsbury in 1781 married Sarah Lane at Kingsclere in 1805, although this would not be consistent with his age at burial.
6. That Thomas and Sarah, the progenitors of this fragment, are an as-yet-undiscovered couple.

[John Lewis believed 1. and 2. above to be the case, and incorporated the relevant information into his Kingsclere families database, which is no longer available online.]
