Census Lookup and Resource Requests / Re: Margaret Ann Blackett - Wolsingham

Sorry to tke so long to reply - my computer has been having "issues"...
I did have a look at the blacketts website and was told by one of the administrators to send in our info but I haven't got around to it. It's a long way back to King Malcolm and there are ALOT of gaps from what I remember. They did seem to like to keep family names going. Marshall was Hughs mother's maiden name. One of my other lines has half a dozen "William Henry's" and my direct line has even more "James Robinson's". It's tricky getting info here in Australia unless you're a paid member of something. Also tricky because my mother-in-law was adopted so we have no handed down info...

Hi Rubyruby
I was stumped by this one for a while too. My husband's line is from Emily Wheatley (Blackett). Unfortunately the birth certificate doesn't have her father's name on it but given that Hugh Marshall Blackett is listed as her father on her marriage certificate I've decided to go with that. Elizabeth Jane Wheatley was their mother and she died in 1875. Hugh died in 1877 and on his death certificate John is the informant and his surname is Blackett. So I think they must have changed their surname some time between 1871 and 1877.... I was wondering if maybe Hugh's wife Mary Ann was in a hospital or asylum or something because Hugh is listed on 1861 and 1871 census as married but his wife is not there. Thought maybe that was why he never married Elizabeth Wheatley??
