Marriage

Fred (Frederick) John Lovelock married Kath (Katherine) Lily Gauntlett on the 21st May 1923 at Our Lady of Compassion RC Church Linacre Road Willesden London NW10. Youngest brother Joseph P Lovelock was a witness. The church closed in 1939 following the opening of a new church (St Mary Magdalen)

Fred gave his profession as Grocers Manager and he was living with his parents at 64 Twybridge Way. Kath was 23 years old and living at 28 Huddlestone Road Willesden Green and gave her profession as a Milliner. Her Father George William Gauntlett was a Railway Guard

The Lovelock's, Fred, Kitty, Audrey,Theresa and Bernard left England in 1947 on the MV Comando via Valetta, Nairobi and Cairo. The boat broke down and and eventually

they flew the last leg courtesy of Haile Selassi - in his private Dakota. In the Johannesburg Star article it said the journey took 10 weeks in all.

Grandpa (john L) always worked in good foods and wine but can't remember where he worked in SA. Mum (Audrey) worked for Coca Cola in accounts until she had me. Bernard was in sales and travelled a lot selling haberdashery items - I have some of his samples.

When we moved to Durban they moved near to Umshlanga Rocks up the coast from Durban. They returned to England within a few weeks of us (we arrived March 1962) but only stayed in UK for a couple of months before returning to SA - we never saw them again. Think they missed the sun and the wonderful social life they had in SA - have to remember UK was still very much post war era and compared to a bright modern new country that SA was England was very drab and crowded. Roy, who married Audrey, was travelling in Africa after leaving the army. His family came from north London. They married there and all three children were born there as well. [Jenny Bathurst, Email 18 Jun 2015]

Shared note

Fred was a witness at the wedding of his brother Francis in August 1922.

An F J Lovelock is listed in Kelly's Kilburn, Willesden and Cricklewood Directories 1930-1934 living at 10 Vicarage Way Willesden London NW10.

Emigrated to South Africa after WW2.

Death Notice [Supplied by John Lovelock] Frederick's nationality was South African and he was retired. He was born in Henley Oxfordshire on the 11th February 1899 and died in Durban on the 21st July 1972. He married Katherine Lily Lovelock in Willesden.
