Work House Records and Archives - Phoebe BLODWELL
« on: Friday 06 July 07 23:10 BST (UK) »
Hi there

Does anyone know where I would find any information on Workhouses in about 1751?  I have a Phebe Blodwell (nee Chettow) who the parish registers state as being of 'ye workhouse' when her son Edward died.

Another son Samuel was born to Phebe in 1752 but he was christened in 1767 as Samuel Chettow but we're not sure if he was born a Blodwell or perhaps Phebe's huband John had already died.  Phebe was burried in 1768 as Phebe Blodwell.  Perhaps Samuel had a run-in with family and cut himself off or maybe he wasn't a child of John Blodwell.

Anyone have any ideas?

Jane

Do you know when and where her son died?  Might be able to narrow down which workhouse?
