I think the big mix up is that William fathered a child with his wife Elizabeth Hargrave born in the 1740s and called Nancy and fathered a child with Patsy Hargrove born in 1763 and called Nancy Lucy Loving born 1789. Patsys father is Hezekiah Hargrove and his mother is Native American, hence the name change from Hargrave to Hargrove. when you reserch early american church records you can see the name changes all across the colonies of men who fathered children with Native Americans. I do believe that Hezekiah and Elizabeth are cousins and that Elizabeths parents are unknown at this time. This is why I am a DNA descendant of William Samuel Loving. Elizabeths parents could be Benjamin Hargrave B.1693-1781 and wife Lucy B.1710-1776. Benjamin died in North Carolina so some body would need to check those records
