The Blanton House
Hampshire, England

The Blanton House was built circa 1777 in the village of Wickham in Hampshire, England. Margaret Gray first learned about the house from the site Hampshire Treasures. We corresponded with several people over the last year trying to find someone who would take a picture of the house for us. Finally, Jenelle Blanton-Wilcox contacted Chris and Caroline Hayles of Hampshire and they went to Wickham and photographed the house for us. They are lovely people and we greatly appreciate their act of kindness. Chris and Caroline have an interesting web site filled with information about the Hampshire Villages. You can also see more pictures of the Blanton House on their Wickham web page. Thanks Chris and Caroline from all of us on the Blanton Family Historians website!

We have tried to find the reason for the Blanton name on the house. No one seems to know. If anyone has any information about this house, please contact us at blantonfamilyhistorians@gmail.com.
