Blencowe Families' Association Newsletter Vol. 21 No. 1 May 2006

Congratulations!

To Lucy and Iain Brewster on the safe arrival on 26 March of their first son, another grandson for Peter and Anna Blencowe. Angus Rory Walcot Brewster was born in Bangkok; if I remember rightly, his sisters Iona and Flora were born in Buenos Aires and Istanbul respectively!

Peter's grandfather and great-uncle married two Walcot sisters. Talking of the name led to another story from Peter: he came across an old paper that his father had obtained for him in 1931 certifying that he was descended from a Knight of the Garter! We couldn't think of a Blencowe who had been thus distinguished and Peter finally tracked down a Walcot connection with the Brydges family who became Duke of Chandos.
