Talk:Charles Blakiston

Ashbourne
Where it states he took land at Ferry Road (rural section (RS) 101), it could be mentioned that he purchased this from his Aunt, Sophia Noel Mackworth, nee Mann, widow of the late Sir Digby Mackworth, who had originally owned rural section 101. Sources here (in the notes for Mackworth Street), and here. There's also a street named after him in Hoon Hay, Christchurch, but I'm not sure that rises to the level being of notable enough for inclusion.Frond Dishlock (talk) 03:00, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Also, there's another version of the subdivision plan here, which was mislabeled (in the original) as rural section 110, but does contain some nice details including little drawings of some of the houses along that stretch of Ferry Road (two of which still exist and match).Frond Dishlock (talk) 03:26, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
