Shared note: RL 20/6/07:Graham 7/3/07: "Do we have the death detail for Kate? I don't recall it, so perhaps it wasn't on Free BMD when I was looking. The entry is in the Oct-Dec quarter of 1862, in the Winchester RD of course, ref 2c 53. The entry is under the name of Ruth Kate. This is certainly consistent with being unable to find any other mention after 1861 in any records for Kate P, Kate R, or Ruth K or Ruth Kate."

Birth

RL 3/7/07: See general note.

Marriage

Family detail from the 1891 and 1901 censuses. Suspect th e two oldest children may be from a previous marriage of Mary Ann's.

RL 16/6/07: The above note has been entered from the earlier HTML version of the tree; the speculation may therefore have been Graham's - or it may have been associated with 'Fragment 6' ('the Wesmill tree') - although in fact both John and Charles are shown there as born in Aldershot (in 1878/9 and 1880/1 respectively) - or it may emanate from discussion around merging the latter with Graham's initial version of the Hants-to-Hereford tree . However that may be, additional data now seems to have 'overtaken' the conjecture. Given the 1881 entry - or rather entries - Frederick and Mary Ann seem to have been married by early 1881 at the latest, and Charles's birth fits with a relatively recent marriage around then. John, however, could still have been born in Malta, <i>and</i> fathered by Frederick, in or out of wedlock; it seems a reasonable assumption that Frederick, as a soldier, served in Malta and met his future wife there.

RL 27/6/07: The above is a revised transcription, following extensive discussion with Graham 20/25 Feb 2007 of aspects of the image and LDS/Ancestry transcriptions.

(i) James's rendering in the 5/3/07 gedcom - also currently [22/6/07] appearing (same data/slightly different layout) in the Lovelock website collection Hampshire 1881 Lovelock entries - was as follows:

Dwelling: North Lane Green Gr Shop Census Place: Aldershot, Hampshire, England Source: FHL Film 1341184 PRO Ref RG11 Piece 0782 Folio 101 Page 21 Marr Age Sex Birthplace Mary Ann LOVELOCK M 27 F Gibraltar Rel: Other (Head) Occ: Soldiers Wife Ann LOVELOCK 2 F ... Rel: Daur Charles LOVELOCK 3 m M Aldershot, Hampshire, England Rel: Son Mary H. GRAHAM M 18 F ..., Ireland Rel: Wife Occ: Soldier Wife

(ii) Graham's previous transcription in the collection compiled to support this tree:

North Lane Green Gr Shop, Aldershot, Hants RG11 782 F101 P21

Mary Ann Russell W (sic) 70 Green Grocer Marlborough, Wilts Mary Ann Lovelock Head 27 Soldiers wife Gibraltar John Lovelock Daur(sic) 2 Malta Charles Lovelock Son 3m Aldershot, Hants Mary E Graham Wife 18 Soldiers wife Ireland ...(?) Sarah Page Wife 29 Soldiers wife Marlow, Essex Florance E Page Daur 1 Aldershot, Hants

(iii) Additional material extracted by RL from the LDS CD-ROM, where 3 'separate' 'households'(?) are shown, each with the same address and other reference details cited:

[preceding the 3 Lovelocks and Mary Graham] Mary Ann RUSSELL W 70 F Marlborough, Wiltshire, England Rel: Other (Head) Occ: Green Grocer

....... 3 Lovelocks and Mary Graham as per James's transcription above ........

[following the 3 Lovelocks and Mary Graham] Sarah PAGE M 29 F Marlow, Essex, England Rel: Wife (Head) Occ: Soldier Wife Florence E. PAGE 1 F Aldershot, Hampshire, England Rel: Daur

Discussion: G 20/2: "The 2 year old child may well have been Ann, and is certainly indicated as 'Daur'. However, I am adamant that the Enumerator has written 'John' as the name. There are, of course, two examples of 'Ann' written immediately above it, and whilst they are identical in form to each other (one being slightly smaller) they are nothing like the child's name. I have included the details of everyone who was living in the Greengrocer's shop, as indicated by 'do' entries in the address column, whilst diagonal strokes from the Enumerator to the left of the names indicate members of 4 'families' as you would expect from the surnames. The last child recorded might have had the name Florence, but the Enumerator has written it as Florance. HOWEVER, a further lengthy pondering over the script does lead to one change. The Enumerator has not recorded anybody as being the Head of the household. What I and the LDS transcribers took to be 'Head' against Mary Ann Lovelock is actually 'Mar', although in that column has been added a 'W' to both Mary Ann entries. In the 'Relation to Head of Family' column there is against both Mary Anns a letter which might be a 'U' a 'W' or an 'M'. Since Mary Ann Lovelock, who's the only adult here we're really interested in, is clearly listed as a Soldier's Wife the two W's, or even the one if the other is an M, make no sense at all."

R 21/2: "(i) Re. John/Ann, Daur etc: the 1901 Sholing entry would suggest that 'Daur' rather than 'John' is the more likely error in the 1881 would it not? (I mean that to be a judgement on balance with regard to other data we have, rather than simply a 'preferential' reading of one entry vs another!) Ages given seem to fit rather well as between the two years - or am I missing something? I note Malta/Gibraltar variation re. Mary Ann's birthplace and that the H-to-H tree 'as is' has the latter. ........... (ii) James ...... seems: (a) to've taken the LDS transcription pretty much at face value - especially as regards 3 rather than 4 households/families, although that could be a slip on the transcriber's part given your observation re. the 'diagonal strokes'; (b) only to've included the Lovelock household (taken, rightly or wrongly, to include Mary E (or H!) Graham). (Malta as Ann/John's birthplace is also missing from the LDS version.) (iii) I think the Enumerator may've been trying to make sense of a complicated multi-family/multi-'household' (as defined for enumeration purposes) set-up, and to render sensibly and at the same time marital status, de facto HofH status (with absentee soldier husbands/fathers), and 'real' HofH (i.e. Head of Family as and when present) status. In that context and with other possible 'issues' involved, s/he understandably perhaps used 'W' for Wife in places as well as (maybe) for Widow - which (lacking other data that I'm aware of) Mary Ann Russell and even Mary E (or H) Graham could have been." {This interpretation implicitly/broadly agreed by GL.}

R 23/2: "...... could you kindly recheck the image you have access to re. 'Mary E'/'Mary H' ........" G 23/2: "As it happens there are three other capital aitches on the page, which are differently formed from the letter in Mary Graham's name. There are also seven capital eees which are similar to, but different to that mysterious letter. However, there are more similarities in the letter to one of the eees, in the form of two loops, that this possibly over-rides the existence of a third loop, and an additional vertical stroke to the left which is what led me to think it was an aitch. Suggest in summary that we go with an eeee."

Shared note

[<i>RL 21/6/07: 'Fragment 6' shows the following for Freder ick: b:abt 1850, Wesmill, Hampshire, England. Naval Officer (corporal) at Aldershot</i>]

Nigel Gerdes - e-mail 29 Nov 05: "Frederick who is at the head of the Hampshire Wesmill tree has a lot of overlap with the Frederick b 3Q 1853 Winchester RD in the new data. Christian name of wife, children names and dates .... abroad .... perhaps one and the same person." - e-mail 30-Nov-05: "I cannot find Wesmill in Hampshire should it be Westmill or Westhill?"

Graham Lovelock -e-mail 30-Nov-05: "I agree that the 1871 entry for Frederick does read as Wimell, but I am personally now in no doubt that WINNALL is what is intended."

RL 9/3/07 (effectively expanding the above): Exchange with Graham 31 Jan/1 Feb 2007: G: "...... the matter of 'Wesmill'. The 1871 entry looks very much to me like 'Wimell', just as Ancestry has transcribed it. But the 1881 entry is definitely NOT 'Wesmill', as the letter that would be an 's' is not formed like other examples on the page. To me it is clearly 'Weemill'. I believe the place in question must be Winall, as there's no other place in Hants that I know of that would fit the bill." R: [Viewed 1871 image (S&N) and agree 'Wimell'; can't view the 1881 image.] "I agree ... it's most likely "Winnall" - which is spelt thus I believe; not too far-fetched a mis-hearing on the Enumerator's part in 1871 and 1881. It's right on the edge of Winchester itself as you probably know. Genuki says it's 'three quarters of a mile N.E. of Winchester .... [and] .... partly comprised within the borough .......' The latter point may or may not explain why little Frederick is stated as born 'Winchester' in 1851 (Hyde St) and 1861 (11 Cheesehill St). Why he should say later he was born in Winnall if he wasn't, who knows? Perhaps he WAS! The family moved around quite a bit, albeit 'locally'. Certainly hard to believe "Winnall" could come across as "Winchester"!"

Chelsea Pensioner data shows that Frederick enlisted on 19 Aug 1870 and was discharged on 26 Mar 1881.

He saw service in Malta which is presumably where he met and married his wife.

At his discharge he was stated to be suffering from Bright's Disease (an affliction of the kidneys).
