Blake Surname Study – Progress
I continue working on the Prerogative Court of
Canterbury Wills (and some from different County Record Offices) but have had a
short hiatus due to the OGS Conference 2017 which was a great success. I will
be returning to blogging wills very shortly. I have had a number of interesting
emails querying various Blake lines which I have not yet attended to but hope
to do that again in the next couple of weeks. I appreciate your emails but they
sometimes take me a while to answer as I know most about my own Blake line in
Andover Hampshire.
2.
Blake DNA Study at FT DNA
The Blake DNA study continues to attract new members
but does need to grow considerably larger before it will benefit the members of
the study. I will try to write up the results of this study in a way that
protects everyone’s anonymity but does make some use of the interesting results
that are arising. (https://www.familytreedna.com/public/blake?iframe=yresults)
I do need to have a family tree to go with new
members and would mention that here. I will not share your trees with others
unless you specifically give me such consent. In the next issue I will have
more to write about the yDNA study although it is still too small to really
draw any strong conclusions except on a very limited basis.

Andover, Hampshire, England Parish
Registers
Andover, Hampshire, England has often been said to be
the “home of the Blakes” when I have been writing to people in Hampshire
through the years. When I decided to transcribe the Parish Registers of Andover
I was surprised to find that yes there are a number of Blake entries but there
are far more Blake entries in Parish Registers in other parts of England. I
will begin publishing the Blake family records in the Andover Parish Registers
in this Newsletter with this issue (baptisms, with marriages and burials to
follow). These records are taken from fiche which have scans of the original
parish registers. The registers for baptism begin in 1589 and have provided me
with a lot of details on the Blake family in Andover in the late 1500s.

The Galway Blake Family yDNA study
I had intended to do a writeup on the Galway Blake
Family yDNA Study but time has once again escaped me. I will attempt to do that
for the October Issue. Gardening will be winding down, the sun sets earlier so
hopefully I will find the time to work on the writeup. Apologies for that delay.
