Hi Jenny

As Linda mentioned I was at the gathering.  It was great meeting everyone and very interesting seeing which branch of the family they came from.  It's been a long time since the Blunden name featured in my family (Michael's daughter Mary) so I'm quite keen to try to find out more about some of the names that came afterwards.  I'm lucky I live quite close to Tadworth so I'll have to visit the cemetery when I have time to look around properly.  Talking to Kate has also made me think that a visit to the Surrey records office in Woking would be time well spent.  Something for the winter months when the weather's not so good.
If there's anything in particular you want looking up just let me know and I'll see what I can find out.  (you too Linda)

Bye for now

My Lovells come from Poole, St James. 

My gandad was Richard Lyell, born 1904, married Lily Matthews.  His father was William James, born 1874, married Bessie Gurd.  His father was William Edward, born 1851, married Caroline Trim.

I believe William Edward's parents were William and Maria but I still have lots to find out about them.  There were about 12 children in William and Caroline's family so there must someone out there with a connection.

Hello everyone

I hope you don't mind if I join in.  I'm the person who contacted Linda through Genes Reunited.  I googled 'Blunden Surrey' this afternoon and found your on going conversation.  I'm descended from Michael's daughter Mary so the Blunden name has long disappeared from my family.  I only discovered it about a year ago but it's great to find so many people working on it.  I'm afraid I don't have any new information to give you but I live in Surrey, not too far from Reigate, Banstead etc.  Before Christmas I went into the library in Ewell and was talking to one of their family history volunteers.  He helped me find much of the info you've been talking about and he also said if I found I was related to the Blundells of Fetcham that he had lots of info as was related to them.  Does this ring bells with anyone?

Nice to meet you all

Louise
