Hi I was wondering if there was anyone on the list researching the BLOXHAM family from Ashchurch during the 17th and 18th centuries. My husband's ancestor was Sarah BLOXHAM born Ashchurch in 1733 daughter of John BLOXHAM and Hannah PHIPPS. She married William BRICK. According to IGI John BLOXHAM was also christened at Ashchurch in 1709. Whilst Hannah PHIPPS was christened at Alstone 1708-1710. I have seen the Pedigree file on LDS but there seems to be a lot of 'circa' dates involved involved starting with John's father - another John. If the Pedigree file is correct, Thomas BLOXHAM (John the elder's father) was christened at Aston sub-edge in 1624 and he married a Joan PHIPPS at Chipping Campden 14th November 1655 - This marriage has been "proven". As I said above, I would love to hear from anyone else researching the same family. Regards Eveline

Dear Eveline, V BEN BLOXHAM, was the submitter for the Ancestral File submission on LDS for the John BLOXHAM who was christened at Ashchurch in 1709. He is no longer living. He was a genealogist who taught genealogy classes on a university level, published books on the subject, and led tours to Great Britain for people from the US who were researching their own families. I know that he was researching in Gloucester at least once, as I was on one of those tours, and did research on my family with Brian Frith in the Gloucester Public Library and also in the Public Record Office. This was in 1971, so there may have been records that were not deposited at that time, that would be available now. He would have kept research logs, etc. I noticed that he had found wills for some of the people. My guess is that at least some of the submitters for the Pedigree Resource File entries are members of his extended family. I hope that this is helpful. Best to you in your research.
