Re: Descendant of Johannes Bleikers - Benjamin Blaker b1823 PA > Iowa

RodBlaker — 2011-10-29 13:51:35Z

Hi - my name is Rod Blaker - I and others are doing a One Name Study of all Blakers everywhere, in conjunction with the Guild Of One Name Studies (GOONS) - on the web. We (The Blaker Society or TBS)are gradually doing all countries where the name appears but have left the US till later because of the great variety of origins and the numbers of Blakers.
We have a web site at www.blaker.org.uk/ and one and all are welcome to visit.
I would like to make contact with the Bleikers/Blaker people - so that we could work together - I hope - and share data etc.
Can someone who is interested contact me at rod.blaker@gmail.com ? I am in Ottawa, Canada. Thanks Rod

Thad was my great, great grandfather on my father's side of the family. I'm related through his son Charles Franklin, his grandson Charles, and my father Charles Franklin Thad. If I find any information on him, I'll let you know!

Also, I think I have a picture of him, so I'll do what I can to find that. How are you related to him?

John Blaker, United Empire Loyalist

RodBlaker — 2010-04-03 22:47:06Z

John Blaker arrived in Canada West - now Ontario - from the US about 1770 - 1775.

By definition that made him a United Empire Loyalist. And got him land; his wife Catherine, sons George and Gilbert, daughters Jane (Ripsom) and Lucretia (whose nickname was Tinkle) all applied for Crown land grants.

Married Catherine Meyers, 1788, I think, daughter of Capt Meyers of Kings Loyal Rangers.

One of Johns sons - George, Gilbert, maybe Alexander, married or didn't, a native Ojibwa maid. Their son was George Blaker, born c.1821, maybe in the Bay of Quinte, maybe Grape Island; who subsequently became a Methodist Missionary to his own people.

This Rev George Blaker: I would like to know the names of his father and his mother.

All events took place in Ontario, in varius places: County of Northumberland, Bay of Quinte and Prince Edward County, Ameliasburg, Fredericktown, Rawden; and perhaps Prescott, Kingston and or Peterborough.

The name is actually Blaker - but it can appear as Blacker and Bleecker.

Any help hugely appreciated; would like to get on with the rest of my life - time's running out !!!

Hi Josie I was reading an old message of yours on root web re Fanny Blaker and Edmund D Faithful your information is not quite correct. Henry Freeman Blaker was in fact married 3 times. First wife was Hannah Bysh in 1837 they had 1 girl child who died in infancy her name was Mary. In 1841 census he was living in Broadwater in a woman by the name of Hannah Colyers house don't know the reason why. Also living there was her daughter Mary Colyer and Marys husband William Beck and their 4 children In 1840 William Beck was sentenced to 10yrs transportation for theft and Mary was married to Henry.They had 7 children including Fanny b 1854. Then in the 1861 census he was married to Fanny Blaker b1820 in Lancing they had 4 children including my gggrandfather Joseph Freeman Blaker. Hope this helps.

Re: English origins

kiwisetter — 2009-10-21 18:12:36Z

Hi Bryan, I am looking to research my ancestry and information on our side of the family generally ends up at a dead end.Probably because we do not have a lot of info to start with. What I do know is that our grandfather was a John Blaker and grandmother was a Edith Ellen Blaker aka Nellie and not necassarily his wife as when our mother Dorothy was born Nellie is listed as a spinster who was a domestic servant who lived at 27 Washington St Brighton in 1912 the year of our mothers birth. In 1925 our mother was sent to New Zealand as an orphan, as Nellie was killed after being run over by a bus prior to 1925.This a long shot but hopefully you may be able to shed some light. Many thanks Maurice Roberts.

Re: Descendants of Bertha Mary Clinkard (nee Blaker)

taupobear — 2008-11-11 23:13:20Z

Hi Rod - yes Harold was Bertha's nephew (by marriage), he lived with her and his uncle Thomas in Toronto for a brief while. He died at the battle of Mount Sorrel. He also had a cousin Harold Alfred, exactly the same age, who died at Thiepval.

Thank you so much for this information. If you come across any descendants of Bertha (I presume they will be Canadian) do let me know.

Re: Descendants of Bertha Mary Clinkard (nee Blaker)

RodBlaker — 2008-11-11 23:08:58Z

You have all the siblings of Bertha Mary.

As to Clinkard, I have a Harold Clinkard who serve in the First World War; so far I can t make out if he died there. May have.

I will check and get back.

Rod

Re: Descendants of Bertha Mary Clinkard (nee Blaker)

taupobear — 2008-11-11 15:04:00Z

Hi Rod - yes this is her, she married my great grandmother's cousin Thomas Clinkard in 1911 in Toronto. I am hoping to find some descendants who might be able to tell me what happened to her and Thomas and whether they had any children. They looked after my grandmother's cousin Harold, who was a British Home Child, for a while until he joined up with the Canadian forces, losing his life at the battle of Mount Sorrel in 1916.

You don't happen to know if she and Thomas had any children?

Re: Descendants of Bertha Mary Clinkard (nee Blaker)

RodBlaker — 2008-11-11 14:59:35Z

Her parents were John Baruch Blaker and Jemima Stringer; siblings were Caroline, Jemima, John, Ruth, Harry, Thomas, Emma, Harriet, Hugh, Alfred, Rose and George.

I have a computer glitch - have to rid my MSN of something called Service Pack 3; should be done today - after that I can send an invitation to the tree and you will see that that line takes you back to around 1510.

As to children, try Library and Archives Canada - might help.
