LOVETT, Thomas  (c 1820-1856) engraver.  Son of Robert Sr.
            Born circa 1820. Worked as engraver, but was a policeman
            1849-52, again as an engraver from 1852 until his death.
            (It is believed he helped out his brother, George H.– both
            in New York City–when Geoge got busy, but these dies
         are probably all attributed to George, no credit to Thomas.)
            Died New York City, November, 10, 1856.
