Thomas James Love

Thomas James Love was the son of Lafayette Love as shown on the 1900 federal census for Point Washington FL. According to the census report he was born in Fl . He is shown living on the 1920 census report with Bama Love and her children by her first husband his age is shown as 35.
Lafayette Love father of Thomas James Love was the son of William Love and Mary Jones. Siblings: James, Martha, Mary Jane Love.

The 1930 census report shows Thomas J. Love with wife Bama and Thomas's father Lafayette living in Point Washington, FL with no children from the Thomas and Bama marriage. Lafayette died Oct. 13, 1930. If anyone has any information on this family I would love to add it to my records.

Bama is buried in Panama City Florida. I have a photo of her grave marker. It is hard to trace her daughters as they marry they drop the name Haney and so census records only show their married name. My research might not be accurate, certainly not complete... but I show her children as:

Johnnie-born 1877 in Peacock Al. Didn't move with Family to Florida in 1910. She stayed in AL. Not sure why as there are no follow up records. She might have died in childhood. In that case she would have been buried in the Haney cemetery that was located on the Haney farm. So far I have been unable to find any records on this cemetery.

Maudine- born in 1897 in Peacock Al. She married a Herbert Ward (relative of Wards in Bruce FL) She died in Ponce De Leon in 1979. She had one son, Dean W. Ward.

Lillian- born in 1895 in Peacock Al. It appears she never married, she died in Cabool Texas in 1936.

William Sanford Haney born in 1902 in Al. William made his home in Defuniak Springs. He died in 1984.

Julia Haney - Born in 1903 made her home In Georgia. No record of marriage. Died in 1984.

Her second husband Thomas James Love was born in 1884 in La....have not found a death year at all. Still looking.
