Hi Eveline and Eric

I have just been to my parents' house, a short walk,  to review the family records and it seems we do have a family tree for at least some of the Bloxham's of Aston Subege from the time of a Ralph Bloxham (1550) in my grt grandfather's handwriting (1890s).  There is about two and half fullscap pages, so too much to copy and as it was raining I did not want to risk damaging them. I am am not sure of the source but on the same page there are references to heralds visitations.  I will take photographs as perhaps the best way of conveying the information. There are references to the Bloxham ancestry in two versions of the Mogridge pedigrees from originals created in the 1700's.

I will revrt to you.

Best wishes

George

Hello Eveline (and Eric)
 
I am afraid I don't have any information on the Bloxhams other than what I posted on the web-site, whereas you seem to have uncovered rather a lot. It would be very good to know more of Thomas Anthony Bloxham's family if you are willing to share it. Do you think the Thomas Bloxham you mention is this Thomas Anthony Bloxham? There is sixty three years between his marriage and the birth of the Mary Kings, the putative granddaughter, in my tree? I understand you have evidence for an earlier name change from Ingles to Bloxham?
 
The extract I posted is from a pedigree which is also included in a book (The Manors of Wyke Burnell and Wyke Waryn in the County of Worcestershire with some account of............) published by my great-grandfather, Charles Edward Mogridge Hudson, in 1901.  Apart from the reference in the pedigree he does not mention the Bloxham's in the text - the nearest indirect reference is "Of the daughters of John Mogridge, Vicar of Pershore, one was Lydia, born 24 April, 1787, at the old Manor House of Naunton Court, near Severn Stoke; residence of her paternal grandmother (i.e. Mary Kings dau. of Anne Bloxham), with whom her mother was then staying. When in her 17th year she married ...... it goes on to relate a little of her life and that the Duke of Kent (the father of Queen Victoria) was godfather to her child. 

There are also some manuscript notes of my grt grandfather which I will check to see if there are any further references to the Bloxhams.

Eveline - I am afraid I picked up you e-mail address before it was censored by the moderator!


Best wishes

Hi
I have a small piece of Bloxham history.

From an early pedigree in the possession of my family I quote " Anthony Mogridge, vicar of Himbledon, co. Worcester. Nat. 1687; ob. 8 Feb. 1766. Mar. Mary only daughter and heiress of Francis Kings of Naunton Court, Kempsey, By Anne, dau. of Thomas Anthony Bloxham, lord of the manor of Aston Subege and of Mickleton, co. Gloucester. She was born 21 July , 1718; mar 24 Aug. 1738; ob. 10 July, 1795. Buried in Severn Stoke Church, and by her he had issue-

 

(1) John Mogridge, sometime vicar of Avenbury, then vicar of Pershore .................."

 

Thomas Anthony Bloxham is my 7xgreat grandfather.


I don't know whether this helps.

Regards

George
