Yes very hard. the closest with age are the 8 year olds propriter seems a bit off,
Slack Lovell *The Welsh family tree can be traced back to Slack Lovell, born in the 1700s. From him descended Major, Ladin, William, Tom, Frederick, Harriet, Charlotte and Trenit Lovell and their numerous offspring.
The Lovell circuit included Devon, Cornwall and Wales, with stopping places such as King Street in Plymouth (Cornwall), the Upper Race in Pontypool (Torfaen) and Brooks Field in Newport (Monmouthshire).The men dealt in knife-grinding, horse-trading and farmwork, whilst the women went from door to door selling pegs and flowers. As always, there was fortune-telling and playing music. "
The one of intreast is this Frederick whom married Carnation Lovell and travelled to north wales then down to the south wales. they had ten children william, john, henry, oli, Sabaina, lementina and Syrenda, sons llewelyn and josh emigrated to the states
In the later Census you can see Henry names two of his Daughters Carnation and Lementina
but its linking henry to Him

Hi Welshspencer
have you got the marriage for Henry to Ellen/Helen
ricky
-
Hi Ricky
no have not been able to find it
-
Hi Ricky
no have not been able to find it
Have to admit. I'm struggling to find one, thing is they could have married anywhere. Only thing I can think of is one of the kids birth certs, would give Ellen/Helen's maiden name

Lovel with one "L", and perhaps Livell and Levell too!
-

Hi Ricky
Yes he is the one on the 1901 in Canton and also the one that says he was born in cardiff, the family were Romany Gypsies so they travelled well up and down the country.
You may know this already but the RTFHS (rtfhs.org.uk) have recently published two of their "Famous Romany Families" series which cover two of the LOVELL families:
The Family Tree of Major and Susanna LOVELL from about 1710 to about 1910, from most parts of England and some parts of Wales and Scotland.
The Family Tree of Daniel and Violetta LOVELL from about 1710 to about 1910, from most parts of England and several parts of Wales.
Hope this is useful.

;) Just saying 'Hi'. I recently discovered my Roma ancestry so doing some research and ordering my nan's birth certificate for her parents' names. My grandmother was Ellen Whitby - her relatives were LOVELL Limpady & LOVELL Mignonette. (Gypsies Passing Through)
My nan was called Ellen Whitby before marrying a Wolstenholme, I think she was full Roma. Her mum was named Sinney Smith who married George Whitby. Sinny's parents were Jacob Smith & mother Matilda Capel.
My nan, Ellen, lived in Putney close to her siblings. I don't know any Roma history apart from what I've gathered via sites like these and genealogy links. Thank you. It's such a shame not to know the many stories and backgrounds of ancestors. It was never discussed and my mum Christine (Ellen's daughter) doesn't know anything either.
