Her sisters were Alice Lovelace & Berta Lovelace of Florence AL. <br /><br />It looks like their father was Wil or William Lovelace. William' s brother was George Lovelace. Both Wil & George's parents were Robert & Harriet Lovelace.<br />Is there any additional info that you could provide and photos to help build my family history?<br /><br />Respectfully,<br />Brenda Harris<br />tookitti16@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36267841.post-18514687306110074172022-02-26T22:29:06.517-06:002022-02-26T22:29:06.517-06:00Who is the writer of this song.Who is the writer of this song.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01403365952239242205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36267841.post-37205742236933744502019-02-19T06:39:44.434-06:002019-02-19T06:39:44.434-06:00I was following the thread of "Yes I know Jes...I was following the thread of "Yes I know Jesus for Myself" and came on your rendition.

I believe Willie Lovelace was also known by...Okay! I believe Willie Lovelace was also known by the nickname, "Buddy". I never met him, but he lived in North Chicago, Illinois (my hometown), and was born in Florence, Alabama. I remember when "Buddy" Lovelace died (early 70s), and have his obituary packed away in a box somewhere in the basement of my house, along with all the rest of my great-grandmother's collection of obituaries and funeral programs. He was one of my great-grandmother's first cousins. <br /><br />Willie "Buddy" Lovelace was the son of Robert Lovelace (1871-1957), who was my great-great grandmother's oldest brother (my great-great grandmother was Mary Francis "Frankie" Lovelace Duncan, 1876-1946). They were two of 16 children born to Sam Lovelace, Sr (1849-1921) & Mollie Rice Lovelace (1852-1926). <br /><br />Sam Lovelace, Sr was one of 9 children born to Robert (c. 1825-?) and Harriet (c. 1830-?) Lovelace. That's as far back as I know on the Lovelace branch of the family. Mollie Rice Lovelace was the oldest child born to Sarah Rice Fowler (c. 1832-?). Mollie's father was her slave master Rice. Sarah Rice Fowler was the daughter of Betty who, according to family oral history, was an African--a "Hottentot"--which is a name given to a tribe of people in southern/southwest Africa. That's as far back as I know on the Rice brach of the family.<br /><br />The Lovelace, Rice, and Duncan families all lived in Florence, Alabama. But 6 of Sam & Mollie Lovelace's children migrated to Chicago and North Chicago, Illinois in the 1910s & 20s. Several of the grandchildren also followed suit after World War II.<br /><br />If you're interested, Willie "Buddy" Lovelace has a grandson who is on Facebook--Elder Willie Lovelace. Elder Willie Lovelace lives in the Chicago suburbs. I am also on Facebook.<br /><br />I hope this little bit of family information helps.Wyeth Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07037542472866679987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36267841.post-58496826513607233002016-05-25T18:38:38.563-05:002016-05-25T18:38:38.563-05:00Her father is Willie and her mother is Eula.

I have all the obituaries and funeral programs my great-grandmother saved so, if Betty Sue Lovelace is a relative, it's quite possible I have something related to her death or funeral. Unfortunately, since I moved almost 2 years ago, all those materials are packed away in boxes somewhere in my basement, and I can't put my hand on them right away.

We always sang hymns there, very rarely the newer numbers. I used to sing this to myself when I felt myself going off the rails so to speak. It had fallen thru the cracks in my memory, replaced by newer songs from radio & worship. <br />All my best, & Happy New Year!<br />dAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11169757419030448356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36267841.post-35967753101819552612014-08-06T21:39:37.997-05:002014-08-06T21:39:37.997-05:00Amen!Amen!MsSupUserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12450091858185932917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36267841.post-24013606711366309772014-03-23T19:29:11.368-05:002014-03-23T19:29:11.368-05:00Amen, brother!

Does the Bible state that a sinner is capable of choosing righteousness/choosing God? <br /><br /> The Bible states that the sinner must believe and repent, but are these actions initiated and performed by man of his own intellectual abilities, or are faith, belief, and repentance a part of the entire "package" of salvation? Are faith, belief, and repentance part of the "free gift"? Does God give you faith, belief and repentance at the moment he "quickens" you, or does he require you to make a decision that you want them first, and only then does he give them to you?<br /><br /> 2. Is there any passage of Scripture that describes salvation in the Baptist/evangelical terms of: "Accept Christ into your heart", "Make a decision for Christ", "Pray to God and ask him to forgive you of your sins, come into your heart, and be your Lord and Savior (the Sinner's Prayer)". Is it possible that being "born again" is something that God does at a time of his choosing, and not something that man decides to do at a time of his choosing? Is man an active participant in his salvation in that he cooperates with God in a decision to believe, or is man a passive participant in his salvation; God does ALL the work?<br /><br /> 3. Is the Bible a static collection of words or do the Words of God have real power, real supernatural power? How does the Bible describe the Word? Is it the meaning of the Word that has power or do the words themselves have supernatural power to "quicken" the souls of sinners, creating faith, belief and repentance?<br /><br /> 4. Does preaching the Word save everyone who hears it or only the "predestined", the "elect", the "called", the "appointed" will believe when they hear the Word?<br /><br /> 5. WHEN does the Bible, if read in its simple, plain, literal rendering, say that sins are forgiven and washed away?<br /><br />Gary<br />Luther, Baptists, and Evangelicals Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02519721717265344702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36267841.post-50750174051750682802013-07-13T19:54:42.403-05:002013-07-13T19:54:42.403-05:00s256,

God pronounces woe on those who give approval to that which He has condemned.<br /><br />What harm is there in it? "The wages of sin is death"--eternal, spiritual death. There is great harm in embracing and living in any sin.<br /><br />Homosexuality is not equal to heterosexuality, and it is not normal. Human reproductive biology bears that out.<br /><br />And, it should go without saying, the adoption of babies by same-sex couples in definitely not a benefit to society.

It certainly won't hurt anyone. It should be seen as normal and equal to heterosexuality, because it is!
