Notes
- Through searches on their children's names, I found the children's birth records, giving me locations for Elizabeth and her husband Bailey Jackson Lovin Jr. In 1940, Elizabeth was with her parents in Bakersfield, California. They had moved there from Arkansas, where she was enumerated in the 1930 census. They must have married when he was in California with his parents after his service in WWII.
After finding some information on their three children reported in Jack's obituary, I found there was an earlier child who had lived only one day. The record of this birth was important in clarifying their residences and time of marriage.
This unnamed first child was born in Contra Costa County, California, in the west center of California. Their marriage record had not turned up anywhere, but with this birth in 1946, we can say they married very soon after Jack was released from military service at the end of WWII. Birth occurred in October 1946, so they married in late 1945 or early 1946.

For a short time between the birth of Bailey J III and their second child Corwyn in 1953, they moved to Texas. Elizabeth and Bailey J III were living in San Antonio when Corwyn was born in 1953.

I have found no other record of their time in Texas.
The next record I find that seems to be them is in 1956, where they appear to be listed in entries for this family in Ventura County, California. There are entries matching Bailey J (Jack) Sr, Elizabeth's husband Jack and Jack's brother Joseph Lee. Both Bailey J (apparently B J Sr) and Jack (B J Jr) are car salesmen. Brother Joe and his wife Betty are part owners of a car dealership. The wife of both Bailey J and Jack here is reported as Edith.

There is a gap in records for them until the birth of their third child Elizabeth S (Libby). They were in Los Angeles when she was born. In 1964 they were in Los Angeles when their third child, a daughter, was born.

There are later entries that are unclear. They report on B J and Edith with Joe, but some of these entries are after Bailey Jack Sr died in 1972, and Bailey Jack Jr also died in 1974. I don't find listings with B J with a wife named Elizabeth. And I have not found a marriage record for any wife named Edith for their son Bailey J III. So the entries for the late 60s are ambiguous and I cannot account for the entries for 1977 and 1980.
In 1969, Jack and Edith are listed in Oxnard.

Bailey Jackson Lovin Sr died in 1972. His son Bailey Jackson Lovin Jr died in 1974. Yet there are records reporting a Jack and Edith to match B J Sr and his wife Edith Fitzhugh, in places where they had lived, in 1977 and 1980.

Elizabeth is reported as the wife of Bailey J Lovin at the time of his death. In some previous records, his wife's name is Edith.

The following marriage record could match Elizabeth McDole Lovin. It reports that one Betty J Lovin married Armand (Armando in some other records) Eliggi in Placer County, central California, not far from Sacramento. This appears to be the right Betty Jane Lovin, because later records report them in Ukiah,m Mendocino, where her son Bailey J III is also reported. Armando died in Ukiah.
