GS,
Elizabeth Mowbray, 1836-1902 was the grandmother of Kate Loughborough, my great grandmother. Elizabeth and her husband George Loughborough brought up Kate as their own daughter, after Kate's mother died (and her father remarried), as you read above. Elizabeth Mowbray, 1836-1902, is the sister of your James Mowbray, born 1822-1888.
Their parents as you may know where John Mowbray 1786-1863 and Jane Chapman.
I will check my records for the Levina possible mis-spelling. Also, I have Elizabeth Jr as 1847, but that might well be my mistake. I will contact you privately to discuss more, but I am busy this weekend.
James Mowbray, born 1822-1888, had a sister, who married a Thomas Pounder, and I keep meaning to dig deeper to see if he had a grandson, who, obviously, would have been...wait for it... a Quarter Pounder...!
We visited Hartlepool and many ancestral sites last year, so I have many photos that might interest you. We must work our our exact relationship! Mowbrays and Loughboroughs ran a shop together.
It is odd that you saw my fiction history. You possible saw a current thread about faded newspaper articles. I read that, think that it would be odd if the sample news article gave anyone an unexpected clue, then this happened.
Most of my heritage is Hartlepool and Bedlington, with a bit of Corton near Lowestoft(!), although I have always lived in Greater London.
I liked my fictionalised account, and, while I am grateful for the many constructive comments, perhaps my writing style kept your attention until you made this connection.
A private message will follow.
