"Henry Blague.─[In answer to a query in the April number of the Register, vol. xxix. p. 112.1—The name of Blague was sometimes written Blake. Among the Boston records of births are these entries: 'Martha daughter of Henry Blake and Elizabeth his wife was born November 2, 1655.' 'Joseph son of Henry Blake and Elizabeth his wife was born September 2, 1660.' That this Henry Blake was no other than Henry Blague, the brickmaker, is proved by the fact that the latter had a wife Elizabeth, and also a son Joseph and daughter Martha. In proof of these facts, the following items are cited: Nathaniel Blague, son of Henry, mentions in his will his sister Martha Squire. Nov. 16,1681, Elizabeth Blague, widow, and Joseph Blague, her son, convey lands to William Norton, in consideration of £28. The said Joseph accepted this sum in satisfaction of £30 that should have been paid unto him by his mother, as guardian, out of the estate of his father Henry Blague. After this date (1681) no mention of Joseph Blague is to be found on Boston records. Soon after a Joseph Blague appears in Saybrook, Conn. Was he the Boston Joseph, the son of Henry? It seems quite certain to me that he was. ARTHUR M. ALGER."
