FAMILIES OF THEBLOMFIELDPEDIGREE
PREFACE
Prepared byCharles William John Blomfield( deceased 1986
Edited and Amended by his son William Charles Blomfield October 2002.
In the British Museum in London England, can be found a pedigree ofBLOMFIELDwhich outlines the various families of BLOMFIELD, from ROBERT de BLOMEVILE, who was alive in 1190, down to an Austin BLOMFIELD who was alive in early 1900s. Unfortunately, we cannot verify any person shown on the B.M. PEDIGREE, except perhaps CHARLES JAMES BLOMFIED, the BISHOP of LONDON, but we have a photo static copy of that document.
Because the B.M. PEDIGREE did not show all the children of ISAAC of OUSDEN, CHARLES WILLIAM JOHN, my father contacted Mr Ernest Stanley Golding, a genealogist, who lived at the Old Cottage, New England Lane, Cowling Newmarket, England. Mr Golding found and verified most of the children of ISAAC of OUSDEN, including Edward Blomfield from whom we are direct descendants. Golding did much of the research for my father as well as for Mrs Ella (Bloomfield) Carnill;her daughter Mrs Celia Dawn (Bloomfield) Akers, who found the B.M. PEDIGREE in London.
Further, Mr Golding found the B.M. PEDIGREE was in error in naming JAMES BLOMFIELD who, on second marriage, married a Lucy Royall. She had only one son named JamesRoyall Blomfield who died in infancy. JAMES BLOMFIELD'S first wife was an Elizabeth Smith who gave birth to five sons and one daughter namely; John, Elizabeth, Edward, James, Charles, and Thomas. John and Charles ( grandfather of the BISHOP), the only one shown on the B.M.PEDIGREE, were sons of Elizabeth Smith and not Lucy Royall as indicated in the B.M Pedigree.
