Another will that fits in with yesterday’s will of John Blake at Standish. This John in his will mentions his brother John Blake of Standish. Possibly though the will of John Blake yesterday is a nephew of this man whose will is transcribed and blogged today.
John Blake, is in his will, mentions his sons Henry and Richard and his daughters Anne and Eleanor. His wife is Margaret Blake. He also mentions a bond with a William Baylye. Also his brother in law William Thue. Francis Haynes also receives a legacy. He even mentions the possibility of an unborn child.
Interesting to find the relationship between these two John Blakes. Another name for Wheatenhurst is Whitminster.
Consistory Court of Gloucester, Wheatenhurst, will number 39, year 1556 GDR/Wills/1556 (39).

Will of Richard Blake, gentleman, Bristol, Gloucestershire - The National Archives PROB 11/963/393, probated 18 Feb 1771
Richard Blake the Testator lives at Bristol. He asked to be buried at the parish Church of Saint Werburgh and so the earlier blog on the memorials for the Blake family in Gloucestershire locates him very nicely:
http://kippeeb.blogspot.ca/2014/04/1248-blake-family-gloucestershire-notes.html
Hence he is the son of Richard Blake of Chipping Sodbury and Mary (unknown) who were buried at Chipping Sodbury. He had uncles Joseph and Samuel both died in 1715. He was married to Mary Greenway and five of their children died as infants. The surviving children – two daughters – mentioned in the will below Susannah and Hannah.

Mr. William Blake is somewhat of a mystery. The testator is godfather to his son Richard. There is also a Christopher Blake, kinsman, mentioned in the will. Eleanor Anthony also his kinswoman. His cousins the Greenway family are also mentioned. Mrs. Jane Rudge is also a cousin.
The assumption that this Richard is a grandson of Ambrose Blake of Pinhills does seem to be reasonable given some of the information related in the blog of Christopher Blake’s will:
http://kippeeb.blogspot.ca/2014/04/will-of-christopher-blake-yeoman.html
Christopher in that will mentions his cousins John Blake, William Blake (deceased) and Joseph Blake all of Tetbury and Edward Blake and Henry Blake of London. Usually one does have relatives as godparents to one’s children (but not always) and this was perhaps more the case in days gone by. This line though has daughtered out; no Blake descendants of this Richard are named.
The will of William Blake of Bristol (1792) is to come and I wonder if the first memorial mentioned in the blog on the Memorials to the Blake family of Gloucestershire pertains to this family:
http://kippeeb.blogspot.ca/2014/04/1248-blake-family-gloucestershire-notes.html
Richard Blake son of William and Rebecca Blake died in 1829 aged 69 (born circa 1760). This Richard would have been 11 years of age when this will was written and the son of a William Blake of St Stephen’s Church, Bristol. This Blake family uses the Calne Blake family crest as well. I wondered in this earlier blog if they were from Cornwall but finding this new information I need to investigate William and Rebecca Blake and see what I can learn about their ancestry. William’s will is to come and was probated in 1792.
Still to do the wills of Robert Blake 1849, Robert Blake 1854 and then William Blake 1792 and William Blake 1853 and Gloucester PCC wills will be completed. I do however have 37 wills that were from Bristol Diocese and a few of them are older wills. I think that I should move to these wills next.

Mr. William Blake is somewhat of a mystery. The testator is godfather to his son Richard. There is also a Christopher Blake, kinsman, mentioned in the will. Eleanor Anthony also his kinswoman. His cousins the Greenway family are also mentioned. Mrs. Jane Rudge is also a cousin.
The assumption that this Richard is a grandson of Ambrose Blake of Pinhills does seem to be reasonable given some of the information related in the blog of Christopher Blake’s will:
http://kippeeb.blogspot.ca/2014/04/will-of-christopher-blake-yeoman.html
Christopher in that will mentions his cousins John Blake, William Blake (deceased) and Joseph Blake all of Tetbury and Edward Blake and Henry Blake of London. Usually one does have relatives as godparents to one’s children (but not always) and this was perhaps more the case in days gone by. This line though has daughtered out; no Blake descendants of this Richard are named.
The will of William Blake of Bristol (1792) is to come and I wonder if the first memorial mentioned in the blog on the Memorials to the Blake family of Gloucestershire pertains to this family:
http://kippeeb.blogspot.ca/2014/04/1248-blake-family-gloucestershire-notes.html
Richard Blake son of William and Rebecca Blake died in 1829 aged 69 (born circa 1760). This Richard would have been 11 years of age when this will was written and the son of a William Blake of St Stephen’s Church, Bristol. This Blake family uses the Calne Blake family crest as well. I wondered in this earlier blog if they were from Cornwall but finding this new information I need to investigate William and Rebecca Blake and see what I can learn about their ancestry. William’s will is to come and was probated in 1792.
Still to do the wills of Robert Blake 1849, Robert Blake 1854 and then William Blake 1792 and William Blake 1853 and Gloucester PCC wills will be completed. I do however have 37 wills that were from Bristol Diocese and a few of them are older wills. I think that I should move to these wills next.

Welch at Rugeley, Staffordshire and Birmingham
Anne Welch married Henry Christopher Buller 23 Aug 1838 at Edgbaston, Warwickshire, UK with this being a first marriage for Anne and a second marriage for Henry Christopher Buller. Anne was only 18 years of age but claimed to be "full age" or 21 years of age. The witnesses for the marriage are unknown to me and do not appear to provide any further details on this family. I suspect that she eloped although the next time we see Anne she is on the census with her family and first child also Henry a 2 year old (1841) whilst Henry is in London running his butcher shop in the Covent Garden area. At some point Anne joins Henry in London (or perhaps she was just on holiday back to her parents in 1841) but the next four children are born in London and baptized at St Martin in the Field. We visited this church which overlooks Trafalgar Square and ate at their cafeteria in the crypt when we visited last October.
Anne was a twin and baptized 4 Jan 1820 at Ashby de la Zouch, Leicestershire. According to the census she was born at Lichfield, Staffordshire. Her parents were William Welch and Sarah Cheatle who were themselves married 24 Aug 1818 at Longdon by Lichfield also Staffordshire. Both William and Sarah signed the marriage registration and one of the witnesses was William Cheatle.
In the 1851 census of the Welch family at Birmingham visiting them is Hannah Tomlinson who is soon to become the wife of one of Anne's brothers and by lucky coincidence is also a niece to William Welch. His sister Mary Welch married John Tomlinson 26 Jun 1814 at Rugeley, Staffordshire and both William and Hannah had listed Rugeley as their place of birth on this census. William on this census and on the 1841 census is listed as proprietor of Welch Eating House located on the corner of Lower Temple Street and King Street in Birmingham. His occupation is listed as Provision Dealer. The priest, on his daughter's marriage registration (and actually all of the children), has listed William Welch as a gentleman.
Locating William at Rugeley proved to be a fairly straightforward pursuit and he was the son of John Welch and Margaret Brockhouse and they were married 16 Feb 1783 at Rugeley. They had 11 children
Thomas baptized 3 Nov 1783 at Rugeley and married to Rebecca Reeves 8 Aug 1814 at Rugeley (and they had seven children - Mary b 1815, Elizabeth b 1816, John b 1819, Joseph b 1823, Thomas b 1826, Martha b 1833 and Samuel b 1838).

Sarah baptized 10 May 1789 at Rugeley and married to William Reeves 15 Oct 1812 at Rugeley (and they had five children - Susanna b 1813, Margaret b 1815, Samuel b 1817, Thomas b 1819 and William b 1821).

Mary Welch baptized 7 Mar 1819 at Lichfield. 3. Anne (as above). 4. Sarah (twin to Anne and so baptized 1 Jan 1820 at Ashby de la Zouch) and she married Edwin Withers 5 Oct 1837 at Birmingham and they had 13 children (William Edward born dec quarter 1838 at Aston married to Anne Elizabeth Whitfield mar quarter 1867 at Aston and they had six children, Clara Harriet born mar quarter 1841 at Aston and married to John Shorten sep quarter 1865 at West Bromwich and they had one child, Amelia born jun quarter 1843 at Aston and married to Francis John Cresswell mar quarter 1868 at West Bromwich and they had five children, Samuel Francis born mar quarter 1845 at Birmingham and married to Elizabeth Jane Crane dec quarter 1884 at Birmingham and they had one child, Sarah Elizabeth born sep quarter 1846 at Birmingham and she married Alfred Cresswell march quarter 1868 at West Bromwich and they had five children, Fanny Louisa bc 1850, Augustus Henry b sep quarter 1851 at Aston, Caroline Rosina born mar quarter 1853 at Aston and she married Charles Seymour Davis dec quarter 1882 at West Bromwich and they had two children, Walter Herbert was born dec quarter 1854, Charles Ernest bc 1857 at Handsworth Staffordshire and married to Mary Rebecca Wootton sep quarter 1895 at West Bromwich, Emily Mary V was born june quarter 1859 at Handsworth, Alfred Weston Pitt was born sep quarter 1861 at Handsworth and Florence W bc 1864 at Handsworth). 5.John baptized 8 Aug 1824 at Lichfield. 6.Henry bc 1827 at Birmingham and married first to Hannah Tomlinson June quarter 1851 at King's Norton, Warwick and they had three children Charles bc 1853, Clara bc 1857 and Minnie bc 1859 all at Birmingham. Minnie married Walter James Haynes sep quarter 1884 at Birmingham and Anne Buller is found on the 1891 census with her niece and her family. Second marriage for Henry was to Mary Copeland Yates mar quarter 1863 at Aston and they had two children William bc 1864 and Albert C bc 1866 both at Birmingham. Third marriage for Henry was to Mary Newey march quarter 1870 at King's Norton and they had four children Frances E bc 1870, Sidney J bc 1872, Ernest E bc 1875 and Lilley bc 1880 all at Birmingham.

James baptized 12 Jul 1801 at Rugeley married Lucy and they had six children .
In general, as far as I could tell from the parish registers, all of the Welch entries after the mid 1700s at Rugeley belong to the descendants of John Welch and Margaret Brockhouse.
Reading the Rugeley parish registers at Salt Lake City it was quite straightforward to trace John Welch back to his parents Thomas and Mary Welch at his baptism 25 Apr 1756 at Rugeley and their marriage as there was only the one Welch family at Rugeley. Thomas Welch married Mary Linn by Banns 2 Sep 1745. Thomas himself was baptized 22 Apr 1711 at Rugeley the son of William and Sarah Welch. Thomas and Mary Welch had five children
Sarah baptized 28 Jun 1747 at Rugeley
Mary baptized 8 Apr 1753 at Rugeley
John (as above)
Ann baptized 26 Dec 1758 at Rugeley
Susannah baptized 3 May 1761 at Rugeley
Since they had four daughters John was the only Welch to baptize children in the next generation at Rugeley.
The marriage of William and Sarah Welch does not appear to be at Rugeley; William was buried there 20 Apr 1713.
A few Welch entries from the Parish Register up to 1718:
Service Day-month Year Surname,forename Information
Marriage 30 Dec 1675 Welch, Richard Margery Litton
Baptism 22 Apr 1711 Thomas S William & Sarah Welch
Baptism 24 Jan 1713 Welch, Winifred D William & Sarah Welch, posthumous
Burial 26 Dec 1712 Welch, Mary D William Welch
Burial 20 Apr 1713 Welch, William
Baptism 10 Oct 1714 Welch, Anne D Mr. Henry & Anne Welch
Marriage 4 Nov 1717 Welch, Edith Thomas Harvey, banns
Baptism 16 Jan 1717 Welch, John Bastard son of Sarah Welch
The Welch family is found there as noted in 1675 and again the entries after 1713 which appear to be a different family from the William and Sarah Welch grouping from 1711 to 1713.
I had expected to find a lot of Welch families on the IGI in the area but the only one I found was a William Welch baptized 21 Jul 1666 at Farewell Staffordshire and the son of John Welch and that was between 1650 and 1690 in Staffordshire. Expanding that to Warwick I found two more entries - one at Wormleighton in 1664 and one at Claverdon in 1680. Leicester had no baptismal entries. Shropshire had one in 1690 at Bishops Castle.
I transcribed the land tax assessments for Rugeley and did not find any indication of my Welch family in those entries in 1783 and 1813.

There are a few interesting entries that I will mention later for other families.
To continue with the Welch family, I probably need a bit of serendipity and perhaps that will be forthcoming my next research day on the Welch family.
Anne was a twin and baptized 4 Jan 1820 at Ashby de la Zouch, Leicestershire. According to the census she was born at Lichfield, Staffordshire. Her parents were William Welch and Sarah Cheatle who were themselves married 24 Aug 1818 at Longdon by Lichfield also Staffordshire. Both William and Sarah signed the marriage registration and one of the witnesses was William Cheatle.
In the 1851 census of the Welch family at Birmingham visiting them is Hannah Tomlinson who is soon to become the wife of one of Anne's brothers and by lucky coincidence is also a niece to William Welch. His sister Mary Welch married John Tomlinson 26 Jun 1814 at Rugeley, Staffordshire and both William and Hannah had listed Rugeley as their place of birth on this census. William on this census and on the 1841 census is listed as proprietor of Welch Eating House located on the corner of Lower Temple Street and King Street in Birmingham. His occupation is listed as Provision Dealer. The priest, on his daughter's marriage registration (and actually all of the children), has listed William Welch as a gentleman.
Locating William at Rugeley proved to be a fairly straightforward pursuit and he was the son of John Welch and Margaret Brockhouse and they were married 16 Feb 1783 at Rugeley. They had 11 children
Thomas baptized 3 Nov 1783 at Rugeley and married to Rebecca Reeves 8 Aug 1814 at Rugeley (and they had seven children - Mary b 1815, Elizabeth b 1816, John b 1819, Joseph b 1823, Thomas b 1826, Martha b 1833 and Samuel b 1838).
John baptized 3 Jul 1785 at Rugeley
Ann baptized 11 Nov 1787 at Rugeley and married to William Beardsmore 15 Sep 1812 at Rugeley (and they had 9 children - John b 1813, Ann b 1814, Esther b 1819, Louisa b 1821, Mary b 1822, Elizabeth b 1825, Samuel b 1826, Jane b 1829 and Thomas b 1832).
Sarah baptized 10 May 1789 at Rugeley and married to William Reeves 15 Oct 1812 at Rugeley (and they had five children - Susanna b 1813, Margaret b 1815, Samuel b 1817, Thomas b 1819 and William b 1821).
Mary baptized 25 Dec 1790 at Rugeley and married to John Tomlinson 26 Jun 1814 at Rugeley (and they had seven children - Mary b 1816, John b 1818, Elizabeth b 1820, Eliza b 1822, Ann b 1823, Lucy b 1825 and Hannah b 1830).
William baptized 11 Nov 1792 at Rugeley and married to Sarah Cheatle (as above) and they had six children 1. William baptized 5 Jan 1819 at Ashby de la Zouch and married to Elizabeth Brookes Wales Smith june quarter 1842 at Loughborough, Leicester (they had two children - Mary Ann Welch bc 1846 Birmingham who married Joseph William Hedge and John bc 1847 Birmingham). 2. Mary Welch baptized 7 Mar 1819 at Lichfield. 3. Anne (as above). 4. Sarah (twin to Anne and so baptized 1 Jan 1820 at Ashby de la Zouch) and she married Edwin Withers 5 Oct 1837 at Birmingham and they had 13 children (William Edward born dec quarter 1838 at Aston married to Anne Elizabeth Whitfield mar quarter 1867 at Aston and they had six children, Clara Harriet born mar quarter 1841 at Aston and married to John Shorten sep quarter 1865 at West Bromwich and they had one child, Amelia born jun quarter 1843 at Aston and married to Francis John Cresswell mar quarter 1868 at West Bromwich and they had five children, Samuel Francis born mar quarter 1845 at Birmingham and married to Elizabeth Jane Crane dec quarter 1884 at Birmingham and they had one child, Sarah Elizabeth born sep quarter 1846 at Birmingham and she married Alfred Cresswell march quarter 1868 at West Bromwich and they had five children, Fanny Louisa bc 1850, Augustus Henry b sep quarter 1851 at Aston, Caroline Rosina born mar quarter 1853 at Aston and she married Charles Seymour Davis dec quarter 1882 at West Bromwich and they had two children, Walter Herbert was born dec quarter 1854, Charles Ernest bc 1857 at Handsworth Staffordshire and married to Mary Rebecca Wootton sep quarter 1895 at West Bromwich, Emily Mary V was born june quarter 1859 at Handsworth, Alfred Weston Pitt was born sep quarter 1861 at Handsworth and Florence W bc 1864 at Handsworth). 5.John baptized 8 Aug 1824 at Lichfield. 6.Henry bc 1827 at Birmingham and married first to Hannah Tomlinson June quarter 1851 at King's Norton, Warwick and they had three children Charles bc 1853, Clara bc 1857 and Minnie bc 1859 all at Birmingham. Minnie married Walter James Haynes sep quarter 1884 at Birmingham and Anne Buller is found on the 1891 census with her niece and her family. Second marriage for Henry was to Mary Copeland Yates mar quarter 1863 at Aston and they had two children William bc 1864 and Albert C bc 1866 both at Birmingham. Third marriage for Henry was to Mary Newey march quarter 1870 at King's Norton and they had four children Frances E bc 1870, Sidney J bc 1872, Ernest E bc 1875 and Lilley bc 1880 all at Birmingham.
Hannah baptized 6 Apr 1794 at Rugeley and married to John Wilks 26 Dec 1814 at Rugeley (they had one daughter).

Frances baptized 2 Jul 1797 at Rugeley.

James baptized 12 Jul 1801 at Rugeley married Lucy and they had six children .
In general, as far as I could tell from the parish registers, all of the Welch entries after the mid 1700s at Rugeley belong to the descendants of John Welch and Margaret Brockhouse.
Reading the Rugeley parish registers at Salt Lake City it was quite straightforward to trace John Welch back to his parents Thomas and Mary Welch at his baptism 25 Apr 1756 at Rugeley and their marriage as there was only the one Welch family at Rugeley. Thomas Welch married Mary Linn by Banns 2 Sep 1745. Thomas himself was baptized 22 Apr 1711 at Rugeley the son of William and Sarah Welch. Thomas and Mary Welch had five children
Sarah baptized 28 Jun 1747 at Rugeley
Mary baptized 8 Apr 1753 at Rugeley
John (as above)
Ann baptized 26 Dec 1758 at Rugeley
Susannah baptized 3 May 1761 at Rugeley
Since they had four daughters John was the only Welch to baptize children in the next generation at Rugeley.
The marriage of William and Sarah Welch does not appear to be at Rugeley; William was buried there 20 Apr 1713.
A few Welch entries from the Parish Register up to 1718:
Service Day-month Year Surname,forename Information
Marriage 30 Dec 1675 Welch, Richard Margery Litton
Baptism 22 Apr 1711 Thomas S William & Sarah Welch
Baptism 24 Jan 1713 Welch, Winifred D William & Sarah Welch, posthumous
Burial 26 Dec 1712 Welch, Mary D William Welch
Burial 20 Apr 1713 Welch, William
Baptism 10 Oct 1714 Welch, Anne D Mr. Henry & Anne Welch
Marriage 4 Nov 1717 Welch, Edith Thomas Harvey, banns
Baptism 16 Jan 1717 Welch, John Bastard son of Sarah Welch
The Welch family is found there as noted in 1675 and again the entries after 1713 which appear to be a different family from the William and Sarah Welch grouping from 1711 to 1713.
I had expected to find a lot of Welch families on the IGI in the area but the only one I found was a William Welch baptized 21 Jul 1666 at Farewell Staffordshire and the son of John Welch and that was between 1650 and 1690 in Staffordshire. Expanding that to Warwick I found two more entries - one at Wormleighton in 1664 and one at Claverdon in 1680. Leicester had no baptismal entries. Shropshire had one in 1690 at Bishops Castle.
I transcribed the land tax assessments for Rugeley and did not find any indication of my Welch family in those entries in 1783 and 1813.
