Can I please remind everyone, especially if you are going to be in the area of Blaxhall next weekend

George Ewart Evans 100
To celebrate the birth of the author 100 years ago
Many of you looking for clues to how your ancestors lived in rural agricultural Suffolk will have read the wonderful books written by George Ewart Evans.

Part of the two days of events include 2 large marquees with various Suffolk groups represented such as Suffolk Record Office, Suffolk Local History Council, Stowmarket Local History Group and following villages groups Orford, Kirton, Campsea Ashe, South Elmhams, Saxmundham, also Ipswich Maritime Trust, Port of Lowestoft,  the Museum of East Anglian Life plus several other groups.

In the Memory Marquee the Blaxhall Family Database will be available to search, plus the photographic database will be available to peruse.  The Blaxhall Archive Group have investigated every family in the village!  Refreshments are also available in this marquee.

East Anglian Traditional Music will be playing on both days in Marquee 2, the East Suffolk Morris Men will be dancing, there will be steel quoits matches played, folk music and singing at The Ship Inn, displays and 50 years of recording the oral tradition on at the Village Hall.

I could go on !!!
(I hear you all saying no, stop, stop please)

I think you have an idea of what an important event this is for Suffolk.
Thank you to the Blaxhall Archive Group for putting it all together.
If you are in Suffolk, just turn up at Blaxhall I am sure you will find something of interest.
