William Blayney born c.1834
Bill's father was Arthur Blayney (1812-1884) according to the latest evidence [1267]. He was previously thought to be ths son of Thomas BLAYNEY, born 1796 a Journeyman Tailor.
Thomas the Tailor born 1796 in Finsbury was in fact Bill's uncle but he clearly treated Bill like a son (as demonstrated by photos held by Alexander's son Thomas, my grandfather).
1 William (Bill) Cornelius BLAYNEY  b.1839 (Bethnal Green, London);
chr.1840; d.1895 (Hackney) [130]; Occ. Greengrocer (1871);
Mary Ann was Head of household in 1901 Census
+ Mary Ann TINSON b.Q3.1841 (?Chippenham);
or 1831 (Mile End Old Town, London)
m.21Aug1864 (Saint Matthew, Bethnal Green) [130] [1263]
d.11Nov1908 (Senile Decay, Heart Failure) (East Tottenham, Edmonton)
Confusion with Mary Ann TINSON who married Benjamin BLAYNEY.
[Dau. of William John TINSON]
[The photo stated "Bill's wife" but the 1871, 1881 and 1891 census
all have her as Mary Ann [371].
John MONTGOMERY b.~1807 (St Lukes Old Street) is given as William's
father-in-law and an Eliza MONTGOMERY b.~1808 (Chatham, Kent) given
as his mother (in-law) in the 1881 Census.
This Eliza is likely Mary's mother who as Eliza TINSON married one
John MONTGOMERY in 1856 (East London) [130],
making John the (step) Father-in-law of William Charles Alec BLAYNEY]
2 Louisa Jane BLAYNEY (BLANEY) b.(Sep)1865 (Hackney) [130]
+ Harry WEBSTER b.1865; m.01Oct1887 (Edmonton) [130]; d.1903

2 Eleanor Mary BLAYNEY b.Q4.1866 (Hackney) [130]; dressmaker; d.1947 (Rochford, Essex)
+ William PATTON a soldier d.1983-1901
[Listed as father in school record 1893, Eleanor listed as widowed in 1901 census.]
[Possibly d.1900 in Boer War but not confirmed.]
[No marriage record found, so Eleanor probably unmarried.
Her name in the 1939 register was given "Blaney, known as Patton, Eleanor"]
3 Florence PATTON b.16Mar1890 (Bowes Pk, London) [Birth Cert];
Bpt.16Mar1890 (St Lukes, Hackney) as Florence PATTON with William as father.
[Listed as Florence P Blayney in 1891 Census [371].]
2 William Arthur BLAYNEY (BLANEY b.Q4.1868 (Hackney) [130];
d.Q4.1949 (Poplar, London); Pianoforte tuner
+ Emily Sarah Ann BIGGS b.Q4.1871 (Shoreditch); m.23Jul1907 ; d.1949
3 Doris Winifred BLAYNEY b.6Jul1909 (Tottenham, Middlesex); d.Q2.1998 (1992)
There is understandable confusion with Doris Winifred BLAYNEY née STORR (1909-1998),
[dau. of Thomas William Storr and Eliza Jane Morrison] who married
Arthur Richard BLAYNEY (1903-1985) (son of Arthur BLAYNEY and Alice BRODEY) in 1932
3 William BLAYNEY b.1911; d.1970 (both London)

Emily was the daughter of Charles BIGGS b.1844 (St Luke); d.1931 and Emily Sarah COXHEAD b.1839 (Clerkenwell). That Emily Sarah COXHEAD was the daughter of Mary Ann Duff b.23Oct1802; Chr.14Nov1802 (St Leonard Shoreditch); d.1895 and William Coxhead b.1802/3; (Hungerford, Wiltshire); d.1874 (Hungerford Newtown, Berkshire). This could possibly be William COXHEAD b.15Jan1809 who was a distant relative of my wife!] |
3 William Charles Alec BLAYNEY ??the same as William b.1911
Saxophonist on the SS Comorin which was requisitioned in Cape Town in 1939
by the Admiralty for conversion to an armed merchant cruiser.
2 Elizabeth (Eliza, Lizzie) BLAYNEY b.(Sep)1870 (Hackney) [371]] [130]
Nurse (1901 Hospital Nurse; 1911 Night Superintendent Nurse) then
Solo mother (unable to remain a nurse, so became a homeless embroideress in
the Islington Workhouse)
d.Q4 1951 (Dartford)
The photo of Lizzie Blayney to the right is from my Grandfather's collection
and given the closeness of their families and the lack of any likely alternative
makes it probable but not confirmed as her photo.
