I found the following on http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Meadows/1759/lovick.html<BR/><BR/>"John Lovick(1691-1733) arrived in the America in 1710, as a member of Edward Hyde's sailing party. On 9 January 1712/13 Madam Catherine Hyde proved the importation of eight persons including herself, Edward Hyde, Esq. and John Lovick. Colonial records of North Carolina identify John as "attorney for Dame Cath. Hide.<BR/><BR/>John Lovick married Sarah Blount, born 23 May 1702, the daughter of John Blount and Elizabeth Davis of Chowan County, North Carolina. The wills of John and Elizabeth Blount both mention John Lovick. Sarah Lovick appears in the will of her father and is deceased by August 1727 when John writes his will naming his new wife, Penelope. John's second wife, Penelope Galland, was the widow of William Maule and Step-daughter of Governor Charles Eden. Penelope married twice more after John's death in 1733, George Phenney who died in 1737 and North Carolina Governor Gabriel Johnston. It appears John Lovick left no issue by either marriage."Philiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01572532603071469799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559692.post-54895789250252942352008-11-17T03:34:00.000-05:002008-11-17T03:34:00.000-05:00A small town in Vermont has made headlines recent...A small town in Vermont has made headlines recently, the story-- the manner in which they have solved the "problem" Forcing the children of the school that want to Say the Pledge of allegiance- they must leave the classroom and go to an attic of some sort. They can't say it in the classroom as a class because there are some children that don't want to say they Pledge of Allegiance. Firstly,I suggest the children have not been taught the Pledge and they don't understand the Pledge. May I suggest your readers google Red Skelton and listen to his story about a teacher Mr. Laswell if more people in Vermont had this understanding well everyone would understand the purpose of the Pledge of Allegiance May God BlessAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559692.post-83650760129978026692008-11-15T03:31:00.000-05:002008-11-15T03:31:00.000-05:00I wonder if any of them were considered radicals i...I wonder if any of them were considered radicals in their day and if asked would say they thought they didn't do enough.
