Judge Jeffries hanged my 9xGreatGrandfather
I've been following up a few leads on Genes Reunited this evening and found a common link with Michael Blackmore, who has been following the Blackmore line. Our common link was John Blackmore b. 27/9/1715 who married Hannah Blanchflower b. 1719 on 26/2/1743/44 in Bromton Ralph Parish Church, Somerset.
I had got the link back to John and Hannah from Chris Ralph's research on the Yandells in Westbury On Trym, who married into the Richards family, who in turn married into the Salters.
Anyway, working back from John and Hannah we have
John Blackmore m. Hannah Blanchflower (1743/44)
Parents: John Feathelstone m. Frances Midlam (29/7/1698)
Grandparents: Thomas Blackmore m. Anne Thorne
GreatGrandparents: Thomas Blackmore (b. 1625, d. 1685) m. Joan Shute
It is this Thomas Blackmore who it appears "was Hanged by the neck from the gate house at Cothelstone Manor By Kirke's Lambs on the orders of Judge Jeffries In 1685 after the Monmouth Rebellion was put down" he was one of the victims of the Bloody Assizes.
