I don't have much info on my Blunden line.

Dinah BLUNDEN (1759-1819) b. in North Waltham, Hampshire, married Christopher RAMPTON (1759-1838) in Monk Sherborne on 18 July 1785

They had 4 boys:
Richard b. 1785
Edward b. 1787
Christopher b. 1790
Anthony b. 1790

The birthdates are courtesy of Sue Daws doing a one-name search on the Rampton family - I am working my way through this family to confirm with other sources.

I have a note that Dinah is the daughter of John BLUNDEN and his wife Rebecca. No more details. I'll go back through my papers looking for any further info on BLUNDEN family and keep you pos

Dear Margaret
Short answer is that before about 1800 I'm not sure where my Blundens came from. My gg grandfather William Blunden was born c1800 in Long Melford Suffolk but I have no knowledge of his parents - names, origin, etc.
William was a surgeon whose wife was Sarah from Doncaster.
Ringing any bells?
KR, Bob Marshall

Dear Margaret
I do not have any of your names in my tree. I have been researching for about 8/9 years now. Although I have lived in Berkshire for 20 years I can find only one ancestor who ever lived in this county! Just my luck.

Not sure. I have only followed the Britts through my gggrandmother Harriet Britt/Brett (the names are interchangeable) who married John Funnell. Her family were from Sussex & she died in Mountfield in 1851.

On the Tarrant side, I can't get beyond my 2nd great grandfather who was born in 1818 someplace in Kentucky. My husband's Goddard's were German.

Hi Margaret,

Thanks for the invite. I have a bunch of SAINSBURY and CLELFORD ancestors on my tree at Ancestry.co.uk, plus many, many more old Wiltshire families. Happy to help folks looking for these.

I'd also like to offer a cheque for £1 million to anyone who can find my suspected father, Christopher Henry Lodge Thomas, b.21 Oct 1909 in West Lavington. He is on the 1911 Census at my Great Grandfather Archibald Wm Phillips, but NOTHING from there on. He may have become a Phillips, or may have changed his name entirely. As I said, I'd LIKE to offer a cheque...

I'm happy to go with a 'No Find - No Fee' detective agency, if anyone can suggest one, but either way the finder will get a mention in the book I am writing on my search.

My Blunden's are primarily from Surrey ... Their name was Blundel until the late 1830's. Is that of any help ... So far no Hampshire ... The grandfather did go to Dorset in the 1950's. Thanks for contacting me

Dear Margaret,
Thank you for your welcome! I am delighted to join this group and will explain my interest. My father's family name was HUTCHINS, and I have traced their definite origins from Great Bedwin and Id.... near Porton. They then moved into Hampshire - Weyhill and Penton Mewsey.
Any clues about them will be gratefully received!

My great great grandfather was Thomas Giddings b 1851, the only thing I know about his life in England was what it said on his marriage record dated 1975, that his father was the deceased Charles Giddings. Looking at the free BMD I find there are three Thomas Giddings born in 1851, two were from Davizes. When I sent for them, they told me that the information dod not match, but I had no other leads as to how to find my Thomas' birth record.

Hi Margaret,
I went to Berkshire Record office last week & picked up the Bershire Historian Magazine March issue. Your article was very interesting. Also i believe you know Val Storie who I see at the Slough Library meetings for Ancestry.
Now I am completely confused with my Elizabeth Whichello. She married my G G Grandfather. Now the census for 1881 states that she was born in Wootton Berks. But I can not find her at all. But a collegue of yours at the BFHS in Reading found me a birth of an Elizabeth born in Windsor. Could this be her ? Jill
