PP_247 That Mary Lovering (247) was the mother of Mary Ramsey (123)  
Mary daughter of John Ramsay and Mary was baptised in Barnstaple on 31 August 1769. B_1769  
John Ramsay and Mary had 3 children baptised in Barnstaple between 1769 and 1773.  
John Ramsay and Mary Lovering married in Barnstaple on 12 March 1768. M_1768  
John Ramsay mentions his wife Mary and daughter Mary in his will of 1786.  W_1786  
Mary Ramsay mentions her daughter Mary Darke in her will of 1807. She also names a certain John Charley of Ilfracombe as a person of trust. W_1807  
The wife of John Charley of Ilfracombe in 1825 was Susannah Lovering. A_1825  
John Charley and Susannah Lovering married in 1788 in Devon. M_1788  
The Indexed IGI has 2 Susannah Lovering baptisms between 1750 and 1773 - 1754 in Ilfracombe (John & Elizabeth), and 1754 in Tiverton (Thomas & Alice). FindMyPast has only the second.  
The Indexed IGI has 3 Mary Lovering baptisms between 1735 and 1753 - 1736 in Ilfracombe (William & Ann), 1744 in Tiverton (Thomas & Alice), and 1753 in Ilfracombe (Richard & Mary). FindMyPast has the first and third.  
It is very likely that both Mary and Susannah Lovering were daughters of Thomas Lovering and Alice - Mary born in 1744, B_1744  
and Susannah in 1754, in Tiverton, Devon. B_1754  
So the mother of Mary Ramsey (123),  
Mary Lovering (247), born in 1744 in Tiverton,  
married to John Ramsey (246) in 1768 in Barnstaple,  
died in 1807c in Barnstaple, was the daughter of  
Thomas Lovering (494), and Alice (495). PP_494  
   
PP_494 That Thomas Lovering (494) was the father of Mary Lovering (247)
