Biography

William was born in Weston, Somerset and baptised there on 21 January 1810.^[1] He is the son of James Blackwell and Mary Poole.

William is not to be confused with the William Blackwell, baptised in Weston in 1810 to William and Sarah.^[2] That William moved to Walcot and became a schoolteacher.

He is also not to be confused with the William baptised in Weston in 1809, parents William and Ann^[3], although that William died a few days after birth.^[4]

As to what happened with this William, I'm not sure. He probably moved out of the area and if he didn't die prior to 1851 probably emigrated.
