About Joane Blessing

notes

From http://stanleyhistory.net/descnarratives/blessingwilliam7662.shtml

The family name of Blessing is extremely rare in England. Our quest is to find the ancestors, if any, of Joan Blessing who married, in 1620 at Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, one William Towne. Extensive surveys of Norfolk and surrounding counties resulted in but one potential situation. In Boyd’s invaluable marriage index of Suffolk county, we find the marriage of John Blyssynge (Blessing) and Joan Preaste in the year1569 in the parish of Somerleyton , which of interest, is but seven miles from Great Yarmouth, Norfolk. It is assumed that this John Blessing is the earliest known ancestor of our Joan Blessing. We estimate that both John Blessing and Joan Preast were born ca 154x and died 1575+ at Somerleyton, Suffolk. They had two children baptized in Somerleyton, i.e., a daughter, Julian, in 1571 and a son, William, in 1575. References: FH6:1662; TAG:V33:199.
