Mary BACON of Mickfield
« on: Thursday 18 February 10 05:43 GMT (UK) »
Am interested to find parentage and further forebears of Mary Bacon, born Mickfield c.1580, married Thomas Bloomfield (b. MIckfield 1576) on 4th Feb 1601 or 1602.  Some sites give her wedding year as her birth year, but son Thomas born in 1608.

I checked the Mickfield registers from 1558-1596 but could not see an entry for Mary Bacon, sorry.  The writing was quite hard to decipher although I feel I could read it adequately enough to say that the baptism wasn't there.

Thanks jmc

Yes, I also have this from others.  The LDS site (and some others, I think) takes the Bloomfields back another generation to John ca 1488 - 9/8/1548 (Bury St Edmund) m. (1510) Anne (1486 - 14/10/1561, Bury St Edmund).  Mary Bacon could be especially interesting because some of the Bacons of Suffolk connect back to Edward III of England, but I haven't been able to make a connection between Mary and the rest of the Bacon clan. I found one attempt to make a connection elsewhere but it doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

Hi Justine,
Glad to hear from you.  You're on the opposite side of the country. The last person bearing the Bloomfield surname in my line was Susan Bloomfield b 1807 Norton SFK, d. 1882 Market Weston SFK.  She married William Linge b 1806 Knettishall SFK d 1889.  Their grandson, William Bloomfield Linge, moved to Durham to take up farming land.  His daughter Jane married Joseph Fisher and they migrated to Sydney in 1928.  I am their grandson.  Susan Bloomfield was my 3xg gmother. 
There are Bloomfields in many places.  Some of the Bloomfields went to Massachusetts (MA) in the mid 1600s.  One, Elizabeth Bloomfield (b1584), married Thomas Paine in 1610 (both from Wrentham, SFK).  They were on board the "Mary Ann" that reached Boston in June 1637, with a brace of kids in tow.  It is possible that she was the ancestor of Robert Treat Paine, one of the signatories to the Declaration of Independence in 1776. However there were a few T Paines in the Colony and confusion is easy. Quite a few of the New England states have a town called Bloomfield.  There was a Thomas Bloomfield m Mary Withers who left SFK for MA. This couple had nine children, and their children went and did likewise, so the Bloomfields blossomed.  I haven't been able to link any of the MA Bloomfields with my lineage (back to John and Anne at the beginning of the 1500s) with certainty.  There is another Suffolk Bloomfield line in New Zealand, also doing family history.    Hope to share more.  Howard

Hi,

I have a Blomfield tree that I am willing to share but am not sure if posting the link to my personal tree is allowed on here as it is on a free site.

I can not guarantee that it is correct of course.

It does have the BACON family on it BUT not a connection to Mary BACON although she is also on it.

Just thought it may be of interest.

Please PM me if you'd like the link - that probably the safest way of delivering
the info.

These are the BACON's I have on my tree but these are linked in through the Blomfield/Sulyard branch on the Sulyard side not via Mary BACON but by a Dorothy BACON who married a Sulyard.

 Anchetal Bacon m. ?
.  Grimbaldus of Wetheringsett m. ?
. .  Ralph FitzGrimbaldus de Beccen Thorpe m. ?
. . .  George FitzGrimbaldus de Beccen m. ?
. . . .  Roger Bacon of Wetheringsett m. ?
. . . . . Robert Bacon of Wetheringsett m. ?
. . . . . .  Reginald Bacon of Lodie m. ?
. . . . . . .  Richard Bacon of Lodie m.  Alice Mynston
. . . . . . . .  Sir Robert Bacon m.  --- de Ingham
. . . . . . . . . Sir Henry Bacon m.  Margaret Ludham
. . . . . . . . . .  Sir Henry Bacon m. ?
. . . . . . . . . . .  Roger Bacon m. Felicia Kirton
. . . . . . . . . . . .  Dorothy Bacon m.  John Sulyard
. . . . . . . . . . . .  Catherine Bacon m.  Thomas Astley of Hillmorton

I do not know about a link to ED III but have also been told the Blomfield family are connected to ED I. - I havent discovered a direct link yet!

I do have Plantagenets on my tree BUT I stress this is not a direct link to the Blomfield family but one by marriage links only - followed through because of a suggestion the Blomfields were linked to Margaret Plantagenet...

her son Henry Pole
daut Winifred m Thomas Barrington
son Frances Barrington m Joan Cromwell (relative to Oliver)

seveal generations down Elizabeth Barrington maries into the Blomfield family of Stonham

several generations up Margaret Blomvyle marries into the Barrington family

and even lower down there are (I think) 2 more inter-marriages between the Blomfield and barrington families.

I know as clear as mud but may be of interst to someone - and may help with your BACON link in a round a bout way!

good luck

Yi Win
