As you know, Chrispy has to moderate comments due to spam. It can take me a day or two to catch up on comments.
This one was significant, and while it is posted to the original blog post, it merits repeating as its own post.
Thank you Donovan.

Donovan K. Loucks has left a new comment on your post "Winfield S Lovecraft (1872)":
You might want to avail yourself of Richard D. Squires' Stern fathers 'neath the mould: The Lovecraft Family in Rochester. Here's an excerpt from the Lovecraft family tree to explain how all these folks were related:
Joseph S. Lovecraft (d. 1850, Rochester, NY)
John Full Lovecraft (d. 1877, Rochester, NY)
Sidney Joseph Lovecraft (d. 1890)
William Lovecraft (d. 1882, Rochester, NY)
Joseph Lovecraft, Jr. (d. 1879, Rochester, NY)
Joshua Elliott Lovecraft (d. 1898)
George Lovecraft (d. 1895, Mt. Vernon, NY)
Winfield Scott Lovecraft (d. 1898, Providence, RI)
Aaron Lovecraft (d. 1870, Rochester, NY)
Hope that helps to sort them all out.

Unfortunately, the spacing of my original "family tree" wasn't preserved, so the relationship between these gentlemen got lost. Here's the same information again but with periods (instead of non-breaking spaces) to show the tree:
Joseph S. Lovecraft (d. 1850, Rochester, NY)
....John Full Lovecraft (d. 1877, Rochester, NY)
........Sidney Joseph Lovecraft (d. 1890)
....William Lovecraft (d. 1882, Rochester, NY)
....Joseph Lovecraft, Jr. (d. 1879, Rochester, NY)
........Joshua Elliott Lovecraft (d. 1898)
....George Lovecraft (d. 1895, Mt. Vernon, NY)
........Winfield Scott Lovecraft (d. 1898, Providence, RI)
....Aaron Lovecraft (d. 1870, Rochester, NY)
To clarify, John F., William, Joseph Jr., George, and Aaron were all sons of Joseph S., and Winfield was the son of George. So, these gentlemen were Winfield Scott Lovecraft's grandfather, uncles, and cousins.
