Title: BLOMFIELD - Suffolk
Post by: Yi Win on Tuesday 24 March 09 16:57 GMT (UK)
Hi,

I am related to the Bloomfields/ Blomfields of Suffolk and have gone back as far as 1500-1600ish (Mendlesham area)- I am looking for any further info and can share what I have.

I stumbled across the names below on the internet but the email address attached to it is no longer valid - if anyone knows where this info comes from it would be appreciated - it does not link directly into my yet but if I could source it and find some further info about it it may prove valuable to me.....

(I am not even quite sure how to translate this!)

Yi Win:

I too am descended from the Suffolk Blomfields.  I have extensive records on them from the books by Reginald Blomfield and EV Blomfield, as well as my own research.  I have Ancestry.com and GenesReunited trees that I can share with you.  My lineage is through Thomas Valentine Blomfield, who went to Australia in ~1820.  He is descended from Robert Blomvyle (~1470-1540) of Stonham Parva, via the house of Mowness in Stonham Aspal.  I believe that Gilbert Blomefield (~1500-1544), who started the Mendlesham branch was his grand-nephew (through his cousin Thomas).  I would be particularly interested to see if you have linked Isaac of Ousden (and Bishop CJ Blomfield) to this family.

PS - I did have a Gilbert Blomfield on my tree at one point but as that line got all confusing I took him off for the moment til I could sort out who went where!

Look forward to hearing from you.

more info...

My John Blomfield 1537 (from IGI) could be the son of Gilbert and Alice but the records (IGI) say 1532 for the birth of thier John - IGI dates are incorrect in some places when compared to other records!

My Bloomfield/Blomfield line seem to come from Brightwell before settling in Ipswich.  Haven't got back further than 1851 I'm afraid but if there is a Brightwell connection, I would be very interested to learn more

Yes, how frustrating is this, YT - will we ever solve the mystery?  I keep leaving the Blomfields to work on other branches of the family and then something like this turns up and rekindles my interest and off I go in search of them once again  ;D

Hi
Don't know if you are still connected to this site, have just seen your post of 2009.  I'm also a descendant of Blomfield/blumvill and would be interested to know how far have you got with the line. I'm a member of Ancestry would love to see your tree.

Hi I'm a bit late to this, but trying to work out who Nicholas B's wife was, all things point to an Elizabeth Paston daughter of clement Paston but she appears to have married a Browne 😖 Can anyone help with this?

Hi.
This is the Newton line & mine is the Stonham line so I am unfamiliar with it but I have Nicholas B marrying Elizabeth Paston.

I have no other info.

Hi Yi
thanks for messaging back, I'm really confused with this Bloomfield branch of my family it all stems from a Sarah Bloomfield marrying a William rouse, she was from Dedham seems her parents and g grandparents came form there and seems to go back to Gilbert and beyond, I can't work it out but don't the Newton and Stonham lines all intermingle 🤔 As I said I'm late and new to discovering my ancestors.

Post by: Greensleeves on Saturday 04 August 18 23:04 BST (UK)
Hello Carnmor and Yi  - I too have Nicholas Blumvill marrying Elizabeth Paston in my tree, but I am really unsure of this particular line.  I am pretty confident of the line from the mid 1600s where my Bloomfields are in Woolpit, Suffolk (the Woolpit PRs are available online and the info there is very useful).  Interestingly, I have in recent weeks been wrestling with the Nicholas Blumvill/Elizabeth Paston pairing and I just keep running into brick walls, mainly because the dates don't fit!  I think my line comes through Hammond b. Wetheringsett 1634 and his father Thomas b 1608 Mickfield.

Hi.
I need to look at the stonham pedigree but not at computer at min but if youve linked it back via gilbert blomville m elizabeth english to the newton line its wrong.

If memory serves me right gilberts father robert d 1498 & the robert of the Newton line was alive  (will of brother) 1503.

Thats IF thats what you are following. People rarely look at death dates or Wills..we are lucky in the Stonham line to have acquired some.

The other mislead is often William of The Bottom Stonham who is  Newton Blomfield being mistook for a William  (similar date) of the Stonham line.

As the nicholas & Elizabeth is not my branch i have little info to go on to help

Hi Carnmor,

I have on the tree the following

William Clarice Rouse live Holbeck & Ipswich m Sarah Bloomfield

From LC SIER's book of Blomfields:-
LC Sier
Samuel Blomfeld ("M") was born in 1744, beginning his business career at Dedham as a Maltster and Farmer and ultimately coming to Greenstead, Colchester, where he took land known as "Hazletons Farm," now owned and occupied by Mr Arthur Curtis. He married Elizabeth May, of Lawford, and his sister Sarah married William Clarice Rouse, a Miller of Holbrook and afterwards of Ipswich, at which latter town he carried on his business at the Mill now owned by Messrs. Joseph Fison & Co,( Ltd.
He had eight children, but six of them died in infancy and the two survivors were a daughter Elizabeth, who married James Fitch, a Miller, of Wethersfield, near Braintree, and a son Samuel ("O").
Samuel Blomfield ("M':) died in 1824, having by his Will, dated 8th March, 1821, and proved at Chelmsford on 16th August, 1824, devised his property at Dedham left him by his father to is two surviving children above mentioned. He was buried at Lion Walk Congregational Chapel (then known as the "Round Chapel"), Colchester.

Sarahs parents were John Blomfield (Dedham born c1745) & Mary Sida
Johns parents were John b1718 Dedham & Jane Rouse
Johns parents were Bezaliel Blomfield Dedham 1685 & (yes maiden surname correct ) Mary Blomfield (Dedham 1685)

Bezaliel's parents went
Henry
John (Puritan) m Abigail Backler
Henry
Henry
Henry m Grace Stannard
John
John
Gilbert m Elizabeth English of the Stonham Blomville's

Mary's line goes
John
John (Puritan) m Abigail Backler
