Benjamin Blayney 1829 - 1898

This information is primarily sourced from Michael & Juliet Blayney [148], back of my Grandfather's photos and some Internet info.

The father of Benjamin's father was Thomas BLAYNEY, born 1796 in Finsbury, a Tailor who died in 1854 at Hackney Wick of Cholera.

The mother of Thomas was Rebecca LAMBERT, born in 1804 at Bethnal Green, London and married on 15th October, 1823 at St Matthew, Bethnal Green [127]
