Lydia Loveless/Lovelace - I am in search of a birth and death certificate as well as place of internment. Lydia was born in Nova Scotia in 1837. She married Charles W. Craven at Beech Hill around 1863. I also am looking for date of death and place of internment for Charles W. Craven born in 1836 in Nova Scotia.
Wesley Loveless- looking for his birth certificate born in Nova Scotia in 1854 or 1860. In the 1871 census he is a Loveless and in the 1881 census he is a Craven.
Also am looking for documentation as to who Lydia's parents are as well as Wesley Loveless parents.
Lydia was not a Carpenter/Carpender nor was she born in North Carolina. She is related to a Sophia Loveless but is not listed as being related on any documents.
Many family tress have incorrect information on Lydia Loveless. She is not a Poole or an Aitken. I have contacted a librarian who has discredited the Poole/Aitken theory from PEI listed on other family trees.
I am willing to pay for the documents I am looking for. I have had an individual who has done geneology for many years come up empty handed. He has checked all churches in Kings, Nova Scotia and came up empty handed as far as internment sites and birth and death certificates.
Thank you in advance. Please help me solve this mystery.

Do you have Lydia and Wesley on the 1861 census?
Is it not possible that Lydia had married a Loveless with Wesley being a child of the marriage?

Unfortunately the 1861 census for Nova Scotia provides rather sparse information about people. It is limited to name of head of household, plus numbers in the household male and female. (Also numbers of births, infant deaths, marriages and other deaths in the last year, and some disability and literacy questions).

Gordon Elwin Craven b 20 May 1869 Corwallis both parents are stated.
It also shows their marriage so Lydia Loveless & Charles Craven tied the knot on the 09 JUL 1866 in Cornwallis.
https://www.novascotiagenealogy.com Use the Advance search function and only the surname Craven It will cost you $11.17 if you order the document.

I read date of marriage as 9 Feby 1866 but it's not that uncommon for marriage dates in birth register to be incorrect.
Order what document? the marriage (1866 or otherwise) doesn't show up in any searches I've done.
