Blaiklock, Quebec c1830s
« on: Monday 07 February 22 18:52 GMT (UK) »
Hi

Can anyone help unravel this mystery please?  John Muscow Blaiklock and his wife Elizabeth baptised at least two children in Quebec, a daughter in 1822 and a son, John Muscow in 1827.  John snr was a merchants clerk.  Sadly, both parents died (dates and circumstances unknown) and these two children return to England and are baptised in 1835.  I know nothing more but hope that some kind person could shed some light on when the parents died and if there were other children?

It is possible the parents married in London c1815 but that is unconfirmed. Any information would be very helpful.

Thank you.

Do you have access to Ancestry Norfolk Nan?

There is a Family Tree on that site which details quite a lot of information about this family - including statements that 2 children were brought back to England by Mrs Chesters, Elizabeth's mother. (John Musgrave Blaiklock supposedly married Elizabeth Mary Anne Chester in 1819 at St James, Clerkenwell.)

If you can - have a look at that tree - I appreciate they are not always reliable, but this one has a fair amount of detail.
