Can anyone help me find a list of blacksmiths at Bleinham palace in Oxfordshire? My husband's Grandfather was such a person [GEORGE HENRY BOLTON] and my husbands Dad [AMOS GEORGE BOLTON] was born in the blacksmiths house in 1900. He always used to say that he was born the wrong side of the wall!! He was born in Lower Heyford and by 1901 was in lodgings in Coventry aged 36 and his wife and family were in Witney [EDITH nee LONG]. Although I have researched the family tree, I haven't found any evidence that he worked there.

Have you thought about telephoning Blenheim Palace directly and asking their administrator if they have such a list? No harm in trying !
