Still looking for Isabella Loveridge of Boulters Rock , Labrador. A possible connection is as follows;
Labrador - Caplin Bay
Rev. George Hutchinson Census (1853 - 1867)
Thomas Loveridge of Anglican Faith with FOUR (4) in family living at Caplin Bay in the Battle Harbour Region of Labrador between 1853 and 1867.

Isabella Loveridge married John White on 13 Sept 1861 at Boulters Rock, Labrador.

Thomas Loveridge married Bertha Burden on 17 Aug 1875 at Boulters Rock, Labrador.

From this it looks like THIS Thomas Loveridge who married Bertha Burden at Boulters Rock in 1875 may be Thomas's son and HENCE, Isabella Loveridge who married John White at Boulters Rock on Sept 13, 1861 may be this Thomas's sister. These may be TWO of the four children of Thomas Loveridge.
The following will also show that Thomas Loveridge was living on the Labrador between 1826 and 1828. Taken from the following book:

Down North on the Labrador Circuit: The Court of Civil Jurisdiction 1826 to 1833,
by Nina Jane Goudie.

The Legal System in Labrador -
From 1826 through 1833, 120 cases were brought before the court. Over half of these cases (66) were debt related, usually between merchant and fisherman.Some planters were having particular problems. James Crawford was one such man living near Cape Charles who struggled to make ends meet each year.In 1826 the firm of Wise, Baker and Howard charged that Crawford owed them £49.14.11 from dealings the previous When he tried to serve a summons, the constable discovered that Crawford was in St. John's.In 1828 Wise, Baker and Howard once again charged Crawford for money owing on account from the previous year. As it turned out, poor weather prevented the officer from serving the writ. The case was held over but once again did not reappear in the records. Crawford also appeared to have problems retaining workers.He lodged complaints against Jonathan Cole and James Feltham for damages of £30 and £40 respectively for “harbouring and employing” servants who allegedly were “deserters from his service.” Both cases were dismissed when Crawford was unable to prove his case. Two days earlier Thomas Loveridge, probably another former servant, appeared in court alleging that Crawford owed him £5 for clothes Crawford had belonging to him. Crawford did not show up in Court. But his confidence was rewarded as Paterson found Loveridge's evidence insufficient and dismissed the case.

Any and All help in this matter greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Len
