Note: apparently when John Stewart McNamara and Lavina Lovey Lake had another baby girl in 1813 they named her after her deceased sister who died in 1808. This is not an uncommon practice.

All records through DAR and SAR has Lovey's name =
Lavina "Lovey" Lake. The Lovey might be in nickname for Letitia but haven't found any reference to Letitia in any documents.
