NFHS Journal request
« on: Sunday 28 August 22 15:51 BST (UK) »
Does anyone have the Nottinghamshire Family History Society journal Vol.7 No.7 (Apr 1993)? I'd love to get a copy of an article on pages 34-35 about the death of James Blagg of East Markham and I can't locate a copy of the journal.

Many thanks if you're able to help.

Only a thought - have you asked NFHS for help?  :-\

Hi BumbleB - I had thought about that, but they don't sell old copies of the journal in their online shop and don't particularly encourage enquiries on their website, so I thought I try helpful Rootschatters first.

And thanks jonw65. That's where I saw the information about the Blagg article and I had the burial information, thanks. I hadn't seen the death notice though. I was planning to try to track all descendants as he's a common DNA ancestor via a mystery ancestor of mine - so the 65 children and grandchildren info is a bit of a blow!!

Thanks larkspur.  I have those and I've just pieced together the 14 children of his eldest son too - a prolific bunch!

hi,

Nottingham archives used to have copies of NFHS Journals not sure if they still do and I'm going there tomorrow so will have a look for you.


also found a James Blagg aged over 21yrs, bachelor, a Horse Dealer of East Markham and Hannah Snell marry at St Giles Church Elkesley, maybe the son of your James Blagg in case you don't have it.
