John David Fidler alias Loving, Sr.

His name is given in the form "Fidler alias Loving", which suggests he was the illegitimate son of a man named Loving and a woman named Fidler. In this connection, note that a Wm. ffidler is listed as having been among those transported to Virginia by John Saxon, who received 1,024 acres in New Kent County (GenWeb).

"A hand written marginal note in the Genealogy of the Virginia Family of Lomax states that John married 2nd on 21 March 1763 to Elizabeth Hargrove" but that seems to be a mistake for John’s son William.
