Notes for Benjamin BLAYNEY
Annie claimed she was a widow when she returned to UK from NZ in 1912. This may well have been the easiest way of describing her marital status. Benjamin was in an lunatic asylums at the time of the 1901 & 1911 census.
Notes for Benjamin & Annie (Family)
The possibility that a child born 1903 called Benjamin Lewis Blayney was a son of Benjamin and Annie. This was not the case as Benjamin Lewis Blayney’s parents were William Edward and Emily Grove Blayney .
