Blackmore - Family History & Genealogy Message Board

BLACKMORE - Bishops Tawton, Landkey, Barnstaple, Shirwell, etc...

karenwh1 — 2009-10-31 18:37:56Z

When I first started my search 10 years ago (!), I had very little information to go by. Now I know that RD Blackmore is not directly related to my line of Blackmores, because he didn't have any children, but my mother thinks it's very possible we are indirectly related. My mother was named Lorna Blackmore in 1934. At her christening she was given the book Lorna Doone, by a relative. My mother brought that book with her to Canada when her mother (Elsie Crosby/ Blackmore/Saunderson) & her mother's 2nd husband Mark Saunderson immigrated to Canada in 1948. Unfortunately, she no longer has the book. :(

(All birth years are approximate, within a year or two)
I have been able to go back as far as 1801 to Richard Blackmore, b. 1801 married to Mary (Lane) b. approx 1803-1806 in Arlington, England. They were married in Shirwell (sp?) England, on Feb 19,1833. Her mother was Dorothy Lane, born approx 1766. Children of Richard & Mary Blackmore: Ann/Anne b. 1834, Charles b. 1835, Silas (my great-great-grandfather) b. Sept 1838 d. Mar 1899), Samuel b. 1841, Joshua b. 1844, Richard b. 1848.

Silas married Mary Ackland in June 1866 in Bristol, England. In the 1871 England Census their children were listed as: Mary Ann b. 1862 Reigate, Surrey, England, Richard (my great-grandfather) b. June 1867, George A. ("A." is probably Ackland) Blackmore b. 1870, Alice Lane b. 1871.

Richard Blackmore b. 1867 married Susan Maskell b. 1869 (in Pyecombe, Sussex), in June 1898 in Cuckfield, England. Children born in Edmonton, Middlesex: Gerald Ackland b. Dec 24, 1899 d. May 31, 1916 during Battle of Jutland, Terence Richard b. 1902, Marjorie Ellen b. 1904, Kenneth (my grandfather) b. March 1907, William b. 1914.

Kenneth Blackmore b. 1907 married Elsie Crosby b. 1902 (in Runcorn, Cheshire, England), in Edmonton, Middlesex Dec 1926. My mother, Lorna Blackmore, was born January 26, 1934 in London, England. Kenneth & Elsie divorced when my mother was 3 yrs old. Elsie married Mark Saunderson (b. 1915) approx 1943. Elsie & Mark Saunderson brought Lorna Blackmore b. 1934 to Canada on the Ascania (Liverpool to Halifax, Nova Scotia) in 1948.

I was born in 1957 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. I am looking for any more information on this line of Blackmores, and I would love to connect with some of the descendants from this line. Would appreciate any help.
Thanks! :)

I forgot to mention Mary Osmond nee Sellick also the wife of George Moore was buried at Cullompton, Devon, England on the 10th December 1743 as Mrs. Osmond. This from the Cullompton Parish Registers.

Moore/Blackmore families of Moorhayes, Cullompton, England.

TerryBlackmore — 2009-08-16 06:09:43Z

Hi

Many of you may be related to the Moore/Blackmore Family of Moorhayes, Cullompton, England. The main branch of the Moore family which died out with the death of Mary Moore who was the last in line of the main Moore Family. She married John Blackmore of Sheldon, Devon, and had one child, John Moore Blackmore. The Parish Registers for Cullompton record the burial of "Mary wyef (sic) of Mr John Blackmore" on the 17 June 1724.
What in the Moore pedigree has always remained a mystery is the identity of her mother. I read many books in my search for details of the family and of significant importance is the following found in "Devonshire Wills by Charles Worthy. This book was published in 1896, long before I was born. That which has been transcribed below is exactly how it is written in the book Devonshire Wills, this also includes the NOTE which is also from the book. Following on is another will from the Moore Family that of Catherine Pomeroy wife of Sir John Moore. In the past I have been accused by a member of my family of writing this myself, especially the NOTE at the end of each will. He having refused to read the book, where it is clear and easy to read, and certainly fills in the details of the missing wife of George Moore. You are invited to try and read the book if possible and make your own decision on the wife of George Moore.

Devonshire Wills pages 236 & 237

1743. The last will of Mary Osmond of Tiverton, Widow, 10th Feb., 1742.
To be buried in "Moores Isle," in Cullompton Church, by the side of her mother.
To Kinsman William Bailey the younger, of Tiverton, silver tankard, salver, and punch ladle, the tea cannister, six tea spoons and tongs, and a gold watch. To his wife Mary "a diamond ring with green stone in it," best white satin gown flowered with gold, and "my linnen gown that I brought in London." To kinswoman Susannah Sellick, " If she be living in the same station at Kensington as I lately saw her," a diamond ring and silver podinger. To kinsman William Sellick, £7- 14s. per annum. To kinsman Peter Slape, £50. To Kinswoman Ann, wife of Francis Matthews, £100. To Miss Mary Coles, £50, and to her father Thomas Coles and to Susannah Haviland, a mourning ring each. To Mrs Mary Osmond of Halberton, two pairs of gold buttons, and to Eleanor Floyer, a mourning ring. The Arms of her first husband, "Mr, Moore," to be put on her hearse.
Residue to said Wm. Bailey, who is sole Exor.
Proved 17th Dec., 1743.
Trustees, Saml. Rogers, Rector of Withycombe, Somerset, and Vicar of Halberton; Thomas Balliman, and Thomas Coles.

NOTE.- Testatrix, whose marriage licence with "Mr. Moore" is not to be found, and whose maiden name is left blank in the Pedigree of Moore of Moorehays, was probably a daughter of William Sellick, who purchased the right of presentation to Cullompton Church, and presented thereto, in 1710.
She was the widow of George Moore of Moorhays, who died 5th Nov., 1711 and by him had an only daughter Mary, the wife of John Blackmore of Sheldon, and the ancestor of the present owner of Moorhays.

Following immediately on from the above will is that copied below

1606. The last Will of Catherine Lady "More" of Cullompton, dated 26th April, 1606. Desires to be buried in the parish church, and leaves the reparation thereof 10s., and to the poor 6s. 3d. To Robert Denys, 10s.
Reside to my servants "Mr. Tryslade and Mrs. Shepherd," who are Sole Exors.
Proved June, 1606.

Note. - The personal effects of Tesatrix were valued at £21 6s. 1d., inclusive of two horses and a mare, which were valued at £8 She was the widow of Sir John Moore of Moorhayes, and daughter of Sir Thomas Pomeroy of Berry, by Jane, daughter of Sir Piers Edgcombe.

Re: Samuel Blackmore Sr.

dblackmore1957 — 2009-07-11 02:26:19Z

Denny
through all the research that I have done, and connected Montgomery MD. Everything so far points that the Samuel Blackmore that came over in 1721 is NOT ours. Samuel was a taxable by 1722 so that samuel of 1721 is NOT our Samuel. Im guessing he had come in earlyier or for another STAte like VA. His father I had found somewhere that is James Blackmore but have not found no connection in england, But thier are several births of a Samuel in the london area

Hilda/Hamilton Blackmore

BenjaminTucker74 — 2009-07-03 06:49:58Z

My nan, whose name was Edna, was born in Tiverton, North Devon in 1923. She was born Blackmore but went by the name Middleton. We think her mum's name was Hilda. Her marriage certificate gives her father's name as Hamilton Blackmore. No other details for either of these people. Nan's entry in the birth register, under Blackmore, gives her mother's maiden name as Blackmore. I'm new to all this ancestry business - any ideas?

Coincidently (I hope!) my father's, father's side of the family are all from Blackmore Vale in North Dorset.

Re: CAPTAIN FREDERICK A S BLACKMORE

lean02 — 2009-05-12 14:37:46Z

Hi David, No, My Captain Frederick A S Blackmore was the Captain of the Steam Ship "Calcutter" on at least two trips to Australia and back in 1854 & 1855, my ancestor Henry Thomas Pressman was the Chief Cook on these voyages but sadly died of Cholera in Turkey on the way back to Southampton in 1855.

At the Kew Archives yesterday I found, but did not make a note of several Blackmore's in the Merchant Navy as Masters (Captains) and Mates all from the Devonshire area.

Thank you for your reply, good luck with your researches.

Margret.

Re: CAPTAIN FREDERICK A S BLACKMORE

DBlackmore8704 — 2009-05-11 07:23:08Z

Hi Margret,

My Frederick PLatt Blackmore was an army officer (maybe as high as a Captain)and not a ship's captain. He did get to New Zealand in the 1860s, and to Fiji in the 1870ish. He was in Antigua in the mid 1850s, married there about 1860 and had two daughters in the early 1860s, I think. He was a shadowy and restless person. He ended his days happily married again, and living in Box Hill, Melbourne, Australia.

I don't think this fits with your Capt Frederck A S Blackmore, do you?

Regards,
David Blackmore (Chester, UK)

I am looking for Captain Frederick A S Blackmore of S.S Calcutter c 1854.

My ancestor Henry T Pressman was Chief Cook on at least two voyages to Australia in 1854 & 1855. I am trying to find any other Ship's that they may have sailed together.

Is this your Frederick Blackmore ????

Peter Blackmore in North Devon

ja125 — 2009-04-11 17:27:26Z

I have a Peter Blackmore who was probably born around 1650 and who married a Thomasin. Their children were baptised in Ashreigney (North Devon) from 1673 to 1690. Since the earliest surviving Ashreigney register starts in 1653 it is possible Peter was born there. But I haven't found a marriage yet either.

Has anybody spotted a baptism for Peter or a marriage around 1670-73 of Peter Blackmore and Thomasin?

Re: Blackmores from Somerset

lett29 — 2009-04-11 12:41:55Z

Unfortunately I dont know where in Somerset John Blackmore came from. I have a census saying he was born in Corfe, Somerset. I know that at some stage he was a Royal Marine and that he moved to Plymouth where he then married Ann Odgers. They had three sons Richard Thomas Blackmore, Charles Blackmore and John Blackmore.

Re: Blackmore link to Troake

TerryBlackmore — 2009-04-10 23:10:00Z

There are several Blackmore Families in Devon. So far I've only been able to link two of them together. This through a Blackmore to Blackmore marriage, and is the families of Parracombe. There are as far as I know two Blackmore families that were baptising children in Cullompton. My own family which is that of Moorhayes, Cullompton, and at least one other Blackmore family that I've never been able to link to my own. I will mention that John is a name found in nearly every Blackmore Family that I've come across as is Francis, and William.

Re: rd blackmore descendants

DBlackmore8704 — 2008-07-19 22:10:40Z

RD Blackmore and his wife Lucy indeed had no issue, though he once said how much he envied those who had a quiverful. His two nieces lived with him after Lucy's death until one of them married. But they had no children, so RD Blackmore didn't even have any issue or relatives by this route.

I have the full pedigree and family records of RD Blackmore, to whom I am certainly related. I will gladly test any claimants, and it is not impossible that there are RDB relations still to be discovered. But not descendants...

Re: Blackmores of Parracombe and Yarnscombe

DBlackmore8704 — 2009-04-01 18:11:14Z

Hi Margaret,

I am most interested in your posting. I know well of Charles (b1809 Parracombe)[my 3 great uncle], and that he was married in 1844 in Barnstaple to Ellen Lovering. He was a stalwart member of the Parracombe community, and lived all his life there in Laurel House (which still stands today). He died in 1894.

I am therefore very keen to learn what evidence you have for his liaison (not marriage you say) to Hannah Blackmore from Pitminster.

Also what is your evidence for the birth of Charles Blackmore in Court Place, Parracombe, in 1835?

I can imagine that such an illegitimate birth might have been hushed up, and that young Charles would have been kept out of sight. Do you know when he emigrated with his mother Hannah and the rest of her family with George Handcock?

I would also love to learn about the life and family of Charles Blackmore in Australia.

I will gladly share with you my tree of Charles (the elder) and his large family of eight children.

Best wishes,
David Blackmore (Chester)

Re: Blackmores of Parracombe and Yarnscombe

DBlackmore8704 — 2009-04-03 14:45:05Z

Hi Margaret,

Thanks for the information. It gets more and more interesting!

I have one or two queries again.

1. Is there information anywhere in the records of Charles (b1835) as to his place of birth being Parracombe? And of his father by name and place?

2. I am a bit puzzled about your refrence to Yarnscombe. This is a Devon village alright, but 20 miles south east of Parracombe, and maybe 30 miles west of Pitminster. I wonder how Charles (b1809) might have got to either place. In those days, these were quite big distances.

3. I will be very happy to send you details of Charles (b1809) if you will write to me at my email address: blackmore@virtual-chester.com

4. Incidentally, I see the marriage of George Handcock and Hannah Blackmore in the GRO records of 1842 in the Barnstaple area. So it fits. Do I gather that the spelling of the name was often Handcock, but sometimes Hancock? It seems to change around in your Aussie records.

Kind regards,
David Blackmore (Chester, UK)

Re: Blackmores of Parracombe and Yarnscombe

margaretsilva1 — 2009-04-03 00:20:48Z

Hi David,
Hannah Blackmore was my husband's Great Great Grandmother.
The only thing I had about this was, Family information, and the fact that Charles Blackmore, son of Hannah, came out with George Handcock, and Hannah his wife and their two children, to Hobart, Tasmania. George Handcock, was a member of the 11th Devonshire Regiment, and they travelled to Hobart onboard the ship 'Elizabeth and Henry'. On the vessell was George Handcock, Hannah his wife, Charles Blackmore, Elizabeth Ann Hancock and Richard Hancock and other members of the 11th Devonshire Regiment and 199 Male Convicts. Embarking as a guard over convicts on 15 Jan 1845 and arriving in Hobart town, 19 Jun 1845.

George and his family were stationed in Launceston, living in Wellington Street, where their son Richard aged 16 months died of a bowl complaint in 1846. In 1846-7 George moved his family to mainland Australia, to Adelaide, South Australia, this move included young Charles Blackmore.

George resigned from the Regiment in 1850 and joined the Adelaide Police Force, Resigned in 1852 and became a Gold Escort Soldier, was one of the Fifteenth Gold Escort during 1852 and 1853, George then rejoined the Policeforce and he rose to the rank of Sargent before his death in 1864.

The informant on George's death was a Charles Hancock, I have not been able to confirm as yet if this was actually Charles Blackmore, or not, I am still working on that. But Charles Blackmore died in Victoria in 1917, and I am waiting on confirmation on that certificate.

The information on Charles Blackmore's father, Charles from Parracombe in Devon, has been passed down through the family, for many years. It is one of the first stories I heard about, when I first married my husband. Until just recently I had not bothered to look into this, but i have decided to persoo this line now. I am waiting on the death certificate of Charles, at the moment, as I do not know who he married, when or how many children he had

Hi Only started researching the family a couple of weeks ago and already 200 ancestors. I haven't been able to fine line anything at the moment but I can certainly keep you updated if I find the answer.
They tended to inherit the same names down the family lines and did not start to be original until the 1800s. I have traced the family back to 1608 and we start to fine tune the tree.

Re: Blackmore link to Troake

bfrancome — 2009-04-08 13:10:23Z

Hi the information you are looking for I am happy to supply you with as these are my ancestors.
Mary Troke married John Blackmore on the 22nd April 1747 in Clayhidon Devon. John Blackmore was born in 1722 in Cullompton Devon and died in the very same place in 1803.

Hope this helps

Do you know if the Wiveliscombe Blackmores are related to the Ash Priors/ Bishops Lydeard. I can go back as far as approx 1700 to Abraham Blackmore, His son William was born 1725, Ash Priors. Would be interesed in tracing this line back further.

The "adopted" daughter(s), were the two daughters of his wife's sister Agnes Maguire - married name Pinto-Leite. They were Amelia Eva and Adalgisa.
They seemed to live with RDB from about the mid 1880s and stayed in the house after RDB died. I think they inherited Gomer House in Teddington.

Doble is a name that comes from the same area as the Blackmore family in and around Cullompton Devon, and there are I'm sure from memory intermarriages between the two families. I agree with Jack, R. D. Blackmore though married had no children of his own, though he did I believe have an adopted daughter.
I do have R.D.'s pedigree which is quite extensive.
There are Doble graves in the church yard at Sheldon, Devon, the village from which is where my family originated from.
There are any number of Blackmore families in and around Devon, many of them claiming incorrectly descents from R.D. especially with their American branches.
I've had so many emails in the last 10 years starting "I'm descended from R.D. Blackmore" that I've lost count long ago of how many there might have been.
It has been a while now since I saw the last claim on this descent.

Hi Patricia

The only Julian I've see around that time in Bishops Nympton is the 4th daughter of Thomas Blackmore and his 2nd wife Johan Datescombe. He had another daughter by his first marriage so Julian is to him alone his 5th daughter. There is no mention of a marriage and usually when a pedigree has a burial date as in this case 3rd March 1722/3 at Bishops Nympton possibly means she never married. Thomas died when she was about 4 years old so the information maybe from his will only. However that is not to say she didn't marry.
If you contact me at Terryblackmore@blueyonder.co.uk I can supply you with a copy of the pedigree that I have. It will take you back another couple of generations and add all her siblings.
As far as I know I'm not related? But maybe somewhere lost in history.

Regards Terry Blackmore

This isn't my family, and I've done little research to this family, but have a small pedigree of this family, and was understood that as they farmed Ridgewood Farm, Clayhiden, Devon that William Blackmore and his wife Mary Dorsek would have had their children John amongst them, there, and not in Cullompton. I'd always thought the John Blackmore born in Cullompton was of another family. As I said I've done no real research to the Clayhidon family so could be wrong.
