Over ten years in the making, "The Blakeneys: An Etymological, Ethnological, and Genealogical Study," by award-winning author and historian Lochlainn Seabrook, is the most detailed work ever undertaken on the origins and meaning of the Blakeney surname and family; a classic that will fascinate, educate, and enlighten for generations to come. This international bestselling 400-page chronicle includes not only a comprehensive exploration of the family's beginnings and name, but also a complete Blakeney family tree (beginning with Willihelm de Blakenia, born about 1150), an exhaustive Blakeney Surname Dictionary (that includes all related names), thirty-eight illustrations, the family crest and motto, articles on Blakeney Point (Norfolk) and Lord William Blakeney (1672-1761), information concerning the Blakeney-Blakley Family Association of Canada and the Castleblakeney Development Committee of Ireland, and an in-depth bibliography and index. Foreword is by Ray H. Blakeney, former president of the Blakeney-Blakley Family Association. Lochlainn Seabrook is the winner of the prestigious Jefferson Davis Historical Gold Medal, awarded by the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Known as the "American Robert Graves" after his celebrated English cousin, Seabrook is a seventh-generation Kentuckian of Appalachian heritage, the sixth great-grandson of the Earl of Oxford, the twenty-first great-grandson of King Edward I, and the author of over thirty popular books, including: "Britannia Rules: Goddess-Worship in Ancient Anglo-Celtic Society"; "The Book of Kelle: An Introduction to Goddess-Worship and the Great Celtic Mother-Goddess Kelle"; "Abraham Lincoln: The Southern View"; "The Unquotable Abraham Lincoln"; "A Rebel Born: A Defense of Nathan Bedford Forrest"; "The Quotable Jefferson Davis"; "The Quotable Robert E. Lee"; "The McGavocks of Carnton Plantation: A Southern History"; "Nathan Bedford Forrest: Southern Hero, American Patriot"; "Carnton Plantation Ghost Stories: True Tales of the Unexplained From Tennessee's Most Haunted Civil War House!"; and "The Caudills: An Etymological, Ethnological, and Genealogical Study."
