Hello everyone! I have been researching my husband's family tree and have now got back to Lucy Walford ( born Witham 1817) who was married to George Jubilee Botham. Lucy's parents were William Walford (Born c 1779) and Lucy BLAXALL(born c 1789, Middlesex). I have been in touch with Jenny Jorgensen and Angela Ward, who are also descended from William and Lucy, and have been given James BLAXALL and Elizabeth Cotton as Lucy Blaxall's parents. I'm looking forward to finding links and hopefully sharing information as my research progresses!! We live in Braintree, Essex, which is about 15 minutes drive from Witham, so we havn't moved very far in the past 200 years!! Kind regards Debbi

Hi Debbi, Great to have picked up another Blaxall researcher on the list. I bet you made Angela's day when she knew you were that close to the Essex R.O. !! I guess she has filled you in with the possible link of James Blaxall to the line of Blaxall's at Letheringham and Marlesford, it would be a really great find if you manage to positively link the two. Regards. Carlton.
