Gudgeon / Kent. Warren / London. Neither has a date. But, they're names that have been given by Gypsys, somewhere along the line.

Lovell and Hearn?! Christ! Well, there's a big pointer. Why would they want to do with anyone else?

Not your direct line? No. But, Someone. Do ye know who? Only, if someone was interesting enough to those people? Those same someones had already found an interest in Your people. See? We need to join the dots  ;)
GAITES (Alverstoke / Bath Pre 1850)
CURTIS (Portsmouth & 1800's Berkshire).
BURGE (Dorset, Somerset and Hampshire)
HUNTLEY (Dorset, Hampshire, Sussex, 'Surroundings')

Hi followed Eliza Ann Jobson/Jopson back to 1841/51 her father was dead as
 :-

Marriage 3rd November 1840 St Leonard,  Shoreditch

Geoge Allen Ordish Bachelor occ Merchants Clerk Father Edward Ordish occ Farmer
Eliza JOPSON Widow Father Wm Gudgeon occ Brewer

1841 census

George Allen 30 Not born in County
Eliza 35 Not born in County
John Gudgeon 70 Not born in County

Wm Jobson 7
Mary Ann Jobson 3
Thomas Pearce 40 Not born in County

The fact that at present the families not only by their occupations but ease of locating via census suggests the link is way back?

So just what are the facts, all that has been supplied or a 75% Romany DNA?

What has been located prior to say the 1841 census?

75% of my DNA matches are Romany.

We have back to William Gudgeon b. 1745 Caddington, Beds married to Ann Warren b. 1843 Luton, Beds

For 75% of your matches to be Romany I would think there would be more than one distant Romany ancestor.

I googled Jopson and found 2 who had married Smiths who were Romanies. Not it my tree, but just out there. So clearly there was a Romany connection.
