1928 The Blundells of Gt. Linford & Cardington

Description

First Edition, Limited Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce

The first edition of this very scarce work, of which only forty copies were produced, for private circulation.

Author Joseph Hight Blundell - a member of the Bedfordshire Historical Record Society - discusses the origins of his family, and demonstrates their descent from the ancient Blundells of Bedfordshire.

Chapters focus on the Blundells of Ireland, Linford and Cardington, and discuss Sir Francis Blundell, Sir George Blundell, and Sir Arthur Blundell, and the descendants of Sir Francis Blundell, 1st Baronet, who worked as an administrator in Ireland in the seventeenth century.

With the bookplate 'Blundell of Bedfordshire' to a front blank.

A lovely work of family history.
