Death

Maria Farmer Lovelock's Death Certificate: On 29th May 1893 at Crondall, Maria Lovelock, female, aged 90 years, widow of John Lovelock an agricultural Labourer (deceased) died from Senile Decay, certified by Wm D Spurrell MRCS. Informant X the mark of Elizabeth Lovelock, daughter in law, present at the death of Pencroft Farm, Crondall, registered on 1st June 1893

Burial

I do not know where she was buried. She outlived husband John Lovelock by some 24+ years, so is unlikely to have been taken back to Vernham to be buried with him - there is nothing mentioned in the burial register there.

Shared note

Carol Cooper, email 9-Nov-07: Maria was difficult to track post 1881. She appeared in the 1881 census at Vernham Dean enumerated as Maria Blake 77 in the household of son-in-law William Blake 49 and Maria's daughter Ann 53. By 1891 Maria, now enumerated as 88, had moved to Deane with son William 57 (who, to make matters even more difficult to track, appears by the name of John Lovelock(!)) and his wife Elizabeth 57 (aka Betsy nee Ball). Adding to the difficulty in researching the family in this census, the Ancestry.com transcription for William & Betsy's daughter Anna Maria Lovelock 24 in 1891 was written as Maurice"! The family moved on to Pencroft Farm, Crondall by the time Maria s death occurred in 1893, Betsy Ball Lovelock also died there in 1895 March qtr, reg'd Basingstoke district, GRO 2c 174 aged 62. Maria's son William remained resident at Crondall in 1901 aged 67, a widowed Horseman on Farm
