Mary Ann BRADLEY (daughter of Elizabeth Betsy GOOSTREE and John BRADLEY) was born 1827 in Sumner County, Tennessee, and died July 1858 in Greene County, Illinois, at the age of 31. She married Peter LOVELL November 20, 1846 in Greene County, Illinois. He was born 1822 in Portland, Sumner County, Tennessee, and died February 03, 1864 in Battle of Chicamaugua at Chattanooga, Hamilton County, Tennessee.

Note for Peter Lovell:
I cannot confirm the parentage of Peter Lovell with a record of his birth. However, I believe his father to be David Lovell and his mother would be Ann Elizabeth Parnal/Parnall. There was a Bastardry suit brought against David by Elizabeth. It evidently was settled by a marriage in Feb. 1822 by this pair. The place, Sumner County, Tenn. (Portland). The date 1822 for the birth of Peter, The Bastardry Suit, 1822. The marriage, Feb. 1822, (probably a shotgun wedding) all comes together as to who I feel positive is his parentage. I also believe David and (probably Elizabeth) is the parents of Andrew J. (Jackson?) Lovell. It states on his death certificate that his birth date is 01/29/1835 in Portland, Tenn. His father David Lovell, (mother unknown) was information provided by Lela "Stone/Scone/Slone" to the coroner. He died in Carrollton, Greene County, Illinois on10/17/1917, (cod/ typhoid fever). Burial on 10/19/1917 at Mt. Gilead Cemetery, Greene County, Illinois. The name "Jackson" comes to me as his middle name coming from my mother. There may be some document that she has seen with this as his full name?

Peter Lovell is was buried February 1864, in the National Cemetery, Chattanooga, Hamilton County, Tennessee.
