    1. How It All Got Started
    2. I have a cousin in Guernsey Who is also into genealogy.She gave me this.? Oliver Blatchfield could very well be Blatchford given the time and place.? Died 1842,march qtr,vol 26 pg 197,Presteigne. ............................................................................I have an Ann Magnage as the informant. It was march 6 1842.He died drunk in Jail in Prestigne.Wales.? I have been able to trace only a few Magnage's. It turns out it is a very rare surname.? There is no mailing list at Rootsweb.com. I have traced a Magnage family to Louis F Magnage.New Brunswick,N.J.USA.abt 1855.He married the dau of a B.S.Bull a Miller by trade and a Quaker.from Essex Co NY USA.They moved. were early settlers of Minneopolis.Minnesota USA. ........................................................................... While the Blatchford I am looking for was married in Redcliffe,CofE.He was a Miller by trade. Hester or Ester is nowhere to be found [remarried.?] The dau Eliza has disappeared,may have married and moved to Newfoundland Ca.? Prestigne,Wales was the nearest city big enough to have a goul or jail.Quakers were persecuted back then.But I do ot think they drank.I have fond the Blatchford's married to Quaker women but never really Quakers themselves.so far.? This will require more searching.? .........................................................................
