Your information has been very helpfull
Thank you.

Hi I am tracing my Blackford links to Swindon, Wiltshire. My ancestor Henry born abt 1792, to a G. Robert Blackford (known as Robert) and a Rebecca Wayt. He Had 5 brothers and 5 sisters. John 1778, Thomas 1787, William 1789, Richard 1798, male, Jane 1801,Dorothy 1795, Harriet 1792, Lucy 1785 and Rebecca 1780.
Father and Henry both butchers. Henry moved to Aust. Apparently Eobert was backsword champion of Southern counties. Was hoping our lines may link.
