Biography

Frances "Fanny" Love was the daughter of Allen Love. She married to Captain Drury Stith.^[1]

Fanny was widowed in 1799. She filed a bill in Brunswick Chancery Court to divide the land & enslave people of her deceased husband's father. The record of this division named her four children, Robert, Allen Love, William, and Helen "Nelly" Stith.^[2]

Note: Birth year of 1765 is a guess based on marriage in 1788.
