The above has been partly derived from a communication to the GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE for Dec. 1791, by Sir Egerton Brydges, who chiefly compiled it from Hasted, compared with Berry's KENT GENEALOGIES, 474, where there are a few inaccuracies. It is, of course, a mere skeleton-tree, and furnishes no information as to the collateral branches, the connexion between the houses of Stanley and Lovelace, &c. Sir Egerton Brydges' series of articles on Lovelace in the GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE, with the exception of that from which the foregoing table is taken, does not contain much, if anything, that is new. On the 3rd of May, 1577, Henry Binneman paid "vi<pence> and a copie" to the Stationers' Company for the right to print "the Briefe Course of the Accidents of the Deathe of Mr. Serjeant Lovelace;" and on the 30th of August following, Richard Jones obtained a licence to print "A Short Epitaphe of Serjeant Lovelace." This was the same person who is described in the pedigree as dying in 1576. His death happened, no doubt, like that of Sir Robert Bell and others, at the Oxford Summer assizes for 1576. See Stow's ANNALES, fol. 1154. In 1563, Barnaby Googe the poet dedicated his EGLOGS, EPITAPHES, AND SONNETTES, NEWLY WRITTEN, to "the Ryght Worshypfull M. Richard Lovelace, Esquier, Reader of Grayes Inne." The following is a list of the members of the Lovelace family who belonged to the Honourable Society of Gray's Inn from 1541 to 1646:-- Thomas Lovelace, admitted 1541. William Lovelace, " 1548. Called to the bar in 1551. Richard Lovelace, " 1557. Reader in 1563. Barnaby Googe's friend. Lancelot Lovelace, " 1571. William Lovelace, " 1580. Lancelot Lovelace, " 1581. Recorder of Canterbury, ob. 1640, aet. 78. Francis Lovelace, " 1609. Perhaps the same who was Recorder of Canterbury in 1638. Francis Lovelace " 1640. Probably the poet's younger (of Canterbury), brother. William Lovelace, " 1646. For these names and dates I am indebted to the courtesy of the Steward of Gray's Inn.
