Hi Geensleeves,

Will do Yi Win,  and I'll report back if I get a positive response.

Right, where are we.... First Yi, I have sent a message to the person who posted on GR and will let you know if I get a positive response.

Secondly John, you may be interested to know there is a tree on An*ry which gives Peter Bloomfield's father as Hammond Blomfield 1634-1712 born Wetheringsett who married Anne Bartlett 1635-1708 born Rishangles.  Wetheringsett is fairly close to Earl Stonham so we might be getting somewhere.  I have sent a message to the tree owner asking if they would be prepared to divulge their sources.  It would be good if we could receive something positive from this - fingers crossed!

Hi Pat, I expect you're still following these posts!  Am sure we'll get to Fram sooner or later...

Regards, Blo(o)mfield Hunters

I am following the posts as at the moment I have little information on my Blumfield connection (have not yet had enough time to persue them).

My Stephen Blumfield's wife, Mary nee Bridges was the last person interred at Framlingham churchyard, he was already in a rather large tomb by the church door.

Ah, Blo(o)mfield Hunters, sadly the A*ry lead was false, albeit made in good faith.  The owner of the tree has been very helpful and says she will remove the reference to Hammond, for which she has no sources because this was given to her by another researcher.   She too has the same info about Peter that we have, so we're all pursuing the same quarry!   I will follow up the leads she has given and report back if anything comes of them.

Oh dear, I fear this reply is off topic ... but

If anyone does want to listen to 'Suffolk' the Lesley Dolphin afternoon programme is called 'All about Suffolk' and she visits a different village or town area every weekday afternoon. there are also interviews with local people and craftmen/women etc.

You can listen again, as with the iplayer link above, or go to BBC Radio Suffolk and listen on line live.

Today she is visiting Great Cornard - and I am struggling to help her with that one

Hi,

well I dont mind you going off topic coz it's an interesting item that we may want to know about! So in a way its relevant! 

Greensleeves - sorry about the Peter link but.....

in your travels through Ipswich you havent bumped into a William Blomfield and Mary perhaps born c1650?

Son William b 1676 so the parents birth dates are just a calculated guess!
2nd son Robert b 1679 married Alice.

Would be very interested to find info re their parents (Will and Mary) or furhter back if pos.

Cheers

Yi Win
