I have seen my ? Mary Lovelady with two MAIDEN NAMES ? (1) Mc Gee ???(2) Ellis ??? I may be putting her middle name in HERE as her MAIDEN NAME ??? But, some old texts do not specify ! I've seen John Lovelady Mary (Ellis) Lovelady etc... I've had to just GUESS ? I know I ,keep an open mind on this stuff, heck some of those folks keeping records way back then were illiterate so keep an open mind ! I do'nt know anything for sure until it is proven , heck my last name was supposed to be many different things and has been until ME ! Some CENSUS reports and such as "court documents" have listed my Name as Shrun or Shrom, then there is Shramm,Schrum,Srum,Schramm, this is exactally what I mean as "keep an open mind" all them names ARE MY FAMILY TOO !Just for info. to everyone who may not know these things yet, some ressons for spelling errors/changes are FAMILY ARGUMENTS, or Law Enforcement pursuit, causing folks to change their idenity by changing the spelling ! I've seen Father with Shrum and son with Schrum and so forth, thought it could'nt hurt to share this! NOW this is my family I know relatives with different Surnames who have the same kinds of stories with their surname spelling or a complete NAME CHANGE, LOVELADY's and STARR's (well some of them) were Cherokee Indins and may have been hiding from the Government or other Indins who pursued them , I think my people have done this, so I'm hardpressed to trace MY FAMILY.
