I'm a Great Great Granddaughter of John Barrett Blackwell. His son Alec was my Great Grandfather, his son John was the father of my father, Donald John. We don't know much about his family. I'm amazed to see so many siblings. Alec fought in WW1 and suffered a lot from his injuries (he was gassed in France). He developed a Parkinson's like disease due to the nerve damage he had sustained - I believe. His wife was (Winifred) Doris Bradshaw. They had three children; John, Bob and Margaret.
