Herefordshire / George Blower, coachman
« on: Sunday 09 December 12 23:29 GMT (UK) »
My great grandmother lists her father's name and occupation on her 1864 Derbyshire wedding record as 'George Blower - coachman'.
Have been looking for years but have never been able to find out anything about either of her parents. After doing some free searches through the British Newspaper Archive I came across mention of a George Blower who was a coachman to H. Crawshay, Esq. at Oaklands Park in Forest of Dean.
As the paper was an 1854 issue of the Hereford Times I'm assuming these places were in Herefordshire. Can't seem to get any further with this and am wondering if anyone has any ideas on further research in Herefordshire.
I've tried attaching a copy of the article.
