The Mary A Lovelock (with apparently 2 illegitimate children) is almost certainly the dau of James L, but who is Elizabeth Woodroffe, and why is Mary A recorded as Daur? One interesting point is that we have a second baptism record for Mary Ann at Wootton Bassett (supplied by Lynn Squire) as follows:1858 Jun 20 Mary Ann d. James(?) & Eliza Lovelock, Wootton Bassett, Groom

22 Jun 2018 - GL adds: The baptism of a daughter of James and Eliza does not seem to be included in any of the on-line sources. With respect to Elizabeth Woodroffe, she was born Elizabeth Newman and married Samuel Woodroffe in Devizes RD in Jul-Sep 1849. They had two sons - Frank (1854) - who appears in the 1861 and 1871 Census Returns as William - and George (1856). Samuel died in late 1856. Speculation, but no more, suggests that one of the sons was the father of at least Mary Ann's son William.
