Notes

  • The first public record I have found of Bailey/Baily Cook Lovin is a land certificate date 1 September 1848.  Bailey  C Lovin is shown as having paid for a 150-acre tract of public lands being sold under an act of congress in Carroll County, Mississippi.  The sale is registered in the Land Office at Columbus, Mississippi.

    There is a tax record for 1853 in Lawrence County, Mississippi, that matches Bailey Cook Lovin.  His residence continued to be in Holmes County, Mississippi, until he moved to Texas.  This land in Lawrence County must be his parents land which he inherited when they died.  his mother's last residence of record was in Lawrence County.

    From the age of the wife Martha and the oldest daughter Nancy, we can tell that Martha is not the mother of all these children.  I do not have information on the first wife of Bailey Cook Lovin.  The children are evenly spaced at about 2 years apart, except for Louvica (Lucretia) and Alelial (Abigail), so there is no clear clue here as to when the first wife might have died.

    But we can estimate that Martha might have married Bailey when she was from 18 to 20 years old.  William is the first child likely to have been Martha's, as she would have been about 18 when he was born, perhaps marrying when she was 17.  We can guess that likely the three youngest children are the children of Martha.

    Bailey and Martha are included in the list of generations in the Lovin Family Bible.
