Biography

Idith (Edith) Blood, daughter of William Blood (spelled Blud), was baptised at the parish church of All Saints in Dalbury, Derbyshire on 30 Apr 1635.^[1][2]

Note: While some online genealogical databases list her given name as Judith, examination of the entry in the original parish register^[3] makes clear that the church official wrote "Idith," which is a phonetic spelling of Edith.
