Blenheim Palace

[carol8353]

I haven't been able to find anyone from the family in 1911 

I wonder if anyone else knows how to search for Blenheim Palace on that census?

I have been trying to find my real father that worked at Blenheim Palace and has always been told they don't hold any records.  I am sure they do! His name is (*) he was there around 1969-1970. Any info would be very grateful. I lived in Flagstaff Lodge, my grandfather was the gate keeper.

Hi Lynn and welcome to Rootschat.

Have you actually contacted Blenheim Palace?

Google them and then send an email to their press office,they will tell you if they have the relevant staff records,although where he worked in the late 1960's is not going to be much help in finding him today?

Regards

Yes a number of times, they said they have no records

I believe my great uncle Arthur Bates Inchley was a Gamekeeper at the Palace sometime during the 40/50/60's.

Hi
I am a Tollet spelt with the one T at the end of the surname.  My father and I are currently undertaking some Ancestory investigations to our surname and would of course appreciate any feedback from anyone able to assist further.  We have lots of photos and information back to around 1836.
Many thanks for any help offered

thank again.....

those gravestones are impossible to read once the lichen takes hold i'v tried in the Old Marston parish cemetry.


but many thanks anyway...
