From Rootsweb.com post: Love Family Quarterly and one of the Publisher/Editors Robert Love [a great uncle] who claimed Robert as the progenitor of his line. I have not personally researched his line and simply accepted his research since he was the professional genealogist. See the following: The Love Family Historical and Genealogical Quarterly Jan 1958 Vol. V No 1 Loves of Kershaw Robert and Violet (Wilson) Love of Chester County, Pa & Chester Co, South Carolina. Their descendants as far as can be learned at this time. Robert Love, it is thought, came from Ireland about 1737, which is the year given by Albert Cooke Myers in his book on the Scotch Irish in York County, Pa for the date or probably the date of arrival of Alexander of York, PA and later York Co, SC or it may be 1744. The Pennsylvania Archives has an item in Vol 1 5th Series, which gives the arrival, among others from Scotland, at Newcastle, in 1744-1765, of Robert Love a "smooth faced, bold looking fellow". The historian did not say " bold, bad looking", so we conclude that Robert, the smooth faced and bold looking, was all right, but it is impossible from the information we have on hand to identify this Robert as the one who married Violet, the daughter of Robert Wilson, at the Forks of the Brandywine in 1738. The fact has been preserved to us in the family Bible of Hezekiah Love, an applicant for a Revolutionary pension, a page from which Bible is attached to his pension application filed in Washington 24th of July 1832 in Roane Co., Tennessee. Robert and Violet Love had ten children. Seven sons: James b. ca 1740; Robert, John, Hezekiah b. Oct 10 1752, Joel and Samuel b. ca 1755. The daughters were Violet, Margaret (first born dau.) & Mary. Hezekiah stated in his pension application that he was b. in Chester County (supposedly South Carolina, though state not given), and it is likely that the other children were b. in the same county. Samuel, the youngest having been b. about 1755, or just three years after Hezekiah. Robert senior, died in Lancaster County in 1786 but since we know nothing of the date of his birth we are unable to computer his age at death. He had a land grant from His Majesty George III, in the vicinity of the Hanging Rock and Flat Rock. This grant is produced herein for its historical interest but for the ancient spelling of the words which may appear quaint and unusual to some if not acquainted with the old English as it was written and printed in colonial days of our country. The grant, it will be seen, was for 163 acres on Hanging Rock Creek approximately fifteen miles south of Camden, and was dated 23rd of April 1762. it must have been about this time that Robert and Violet moved from Chester to this part of what was then Craven County, a county which was abolished a few years afterwards. Chester Co also lay in Craven Co until the Scotch-Irish from Pennsylvania under the leadership of Alexander Love, were successful in having legislation passed providing for the erection of the counties of Lancaster, Chester, York, and Fairfield out of the territory in the Piedmont section bordering on North Carolina, which had been previously a part of Craven County, and known as "the New Acquisition." [edit] ====================================Notes 1 From email dated 9/30/98 from Anna Nettles (ANet174895@@aol.com): Robert was born in 1718 Antrim Co., Ireland and died 1768. Received land grantfrom King George III of England dated April 24, 1767 (Scots-Irish in York Co., PA - book). Have requested documentation of this information as it conflicts with the information given below. Volume XV, No. 2, October 1976, Robert is believed to have come from Ireland about 1737. After marrying Violet, they went to Chester Co., SC about 1750. Robert received a land grant on April 23, 1762 of 163 acres on Hanging Rock Creek about 15 miles south of Camden. It was then that Robert and Violet and family moved from Chester Co. to what was then Craven Co., SC, a county that was abolished a few years later. Later the area became part of Lancaster Co. Robert died in Lancaster Co., SC in 1786 .and Violet about 1738.

Notes for ROBERT LOVE: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~mabry/collins/np32.html Robert Love was executor of the estate of William Tease. Robert Love was almost certainly the older brother (probably half-brother) of Joseph Love (b. 1728). Robert came from Pennsylvania to then Chester County, South Carolina. However, about 1770 after his children were grown and his wife, Violet, had died, he went to Augusta County, Virginia where he remained until about 1779. He probably went back to South Carolina where he died about 1786 in Lancaster County. Robert Love first appears in the records of Augusta County in 1773 on a list of taxpayers who were delinquent for the years 1771 and 1772 [Lyman Chalkey, Chronicles of Augusta County, Virginia, Vol. 2, p. 421]. The same Robert Love was one of the executors of the estate of William Teas, who wrote his will on 10 August 1776, naming his wife, Mary and Robert Love as his executors [Chalkey, Vol. 3, p. 150]. William Tease's will was proved in Augusta County on 17 March 1778 and the sale of his estate sale was held on 3 April 1779 by the same Mary Tease, widow, and Robert Love [Chalkey, Vol. 3, p, 187]. It should be noted that William and Mary Tease were the parents of Joseph Teas (as it was usually spelled in the next generation), who married Jane ?Henderson about 1729. Joseph and Jane Teas were the parents of Mary Teas (ca 1734 - 1815) who married Joseph2 Love (Robert1). The close relationship of these families is shown by the fact that both the Loves and the Teas(e) families came to the Valley of Virginia from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The question then becomes, what was the relationship between William Tease and his second executor, Robert Love. Clearly he was very close to Joseph and Samuel Love. The name of Robert Love appears, along with those of Joseph and Samuel, on a list of contributors to the Tinkling Spring Presbyterian Church which dates from 1765 - 1770 [Howard McKnight Wilson, The Tinkling Spring: Headwater of Freedom, 1954, p. 440]. This record shows that Robert Love was present in Augusta County at least one or two years earlier than the 1771 date given by Franklin D. Love.
