NOTABLE BLADON'S

Throughout research, you come accross Bladon's who you feel compelled to find out more about them.  They may have had an interesting occupation e.g. army, marine, had an eventful or sad life etc. On my tree appear some like that.  There is George Bladon brother of my great  x 4 grandfather.  He married 4 times, not unusual in those days. His last wife was Lydia widow of George's nephew James!  So besides their respective children being first cousins, they also became step siblings!  Luckily they didn't have any children themselves or that part of the tree would have been difficult to draw.

I have selected the following Bladon's as I think they deserve a wider audience to hear their story.

Thomas Edward Bladon - 1849-1928 my 1st cousin 4 x removed

Mary Ann Bladon - 1838-1916 my great great great aunt

James and Ann Bladon - my great great great great uncle and aunt
