I'm new here, and this is my very first post!
My Uncle is a Lovell. He's married to my Aunt, so there is no blood connection to me, but I've done a bit of him as part of my wider tree.
I've found his great-great Grandfather, James Lovell, who was born in Wells, Somerset in 1801 and was a Carpenter's journeyman by trade.
James' son was Edwin Lovell, born 1829, also in Wells and was a Currier's journeyman (One that prepares tanned hides for use) on 1851 census.
Edwin's son was born in Gravesend, Kent in 1862, so the family must have moved, presumably for work.
It's a fascinating hobby - I've only just started, and I'm already hooked!
