Descendants of Thomas Baglin (1725) and Hannah (1st wife)

One of Thomas Baglin's children with Hannah (his first wife) was Rebeka Baglin (born 1748) who had a number of children, but kept Baglin as her children's surnames. Her daughter Ann Baglin (1775) had a son by the name of Thomas Baglin (1792) and it appears that, like her mother, she also passed the Baglin surname to her son, I would imagine for obvious reasons, but strange that both mother and daughter have gone the same way?

Thomas married Mary Neale and one of their children was Daniel Baglin born 1824. He married Ann Cole (1824) and their son was a Charles Cole Baglin. One of his children, James Baglin born 1874, moved to London where he resided as the lodger with the Baldwin family in Whitechapel. He then went onto marry Maud Baldwin (photo right). Their daughter Minnie Elizabeth was born in 1906 and granddaughter, Eileen Maud Williams born 1930.

James Baglin, who moved to London, was apparently a huge man who worked as a Meat Porter at one of the London Markets. He suffered badly from epilepsy and as a result was committed and died in Bexley Mental Institution. The story is that he was a Bare Knuckle fighter when still living in Gloucestershire and that the constant blows to the head gave him the epilepsy.
