Herbert W. Bloomfield1

b. 23 August 1852, d. 19 December 1921
Family
Father*William Bloomfield2
Mother*Selina Whitby2
Birth*23 August 1852Herbert W. Bloomfield was born on 23 August 1852 in Brentwood Borough, Essex County, England,1,3 
Baptism28 October 1852 and was baptized on 28 October 1852 at St. Mary the Virgin, Shenfield, Brentwood, Essex County.4 
Name VariationHis full name was Herbert William Bloomfield.5 
Marriage*1888He married Anna E. McLaughlin in 1888 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.5,1 
Census US 1910*8 April 1910Anna E. and Herbert W. Bloomfield were enumerated on the 1910 census taken on 8 April 1910 at 2646 Thompson Street, Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. Herbert was 56 years of age and owned and operated his own butcher shop, and Anna was 40 years of age. They had been married for 22 years, owned their house free of mortgage, and Anna had given birth to seven children, all of whom were living and enumerated with their parents in 1910. Edith A. was 20 years old and worked as a school teacher for the city; Bessie S. was 19 years old and worked as a bookkeeper for a towel mill; Herbert W. Jr. was 17 years old; Gladys M. was 14; Alice S. was 8; Joseph E. was 5; and Henry C. was 3 years old. Herbert Jr., Gladys, Alice and Joseph had all attended school within the census year. Also residing with the Bloomfield family in 1910 was a boarder, Wesley McLaughlin, who was 33 years of age, born in Pennsylvania, and a blacksmith. We suspect he was a relative of Anna's. Additionally, Anna Williams, age 16 and born in Germany, lived with the family and worked as a servant.1 
Census US 1920*28 January 1920Anna and Herbert W. Bloomfield were enumerated on the 1920 census taken on 28 January 1920 in Tullytown, Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Herbert was 67 years of age and a farmer, and Anna was 50 years of age. Herbert's immigration year was recorded as 1880 and he was naturalized in 1890. They owned their farm with a mortgage. Anna's occupation was recorded as traveling salesman, which we feel certain was meant to have been written by the census taker on the next line for the couple's son Herbert Jr. who was 27 years of age and was enumerated in his parent's household. Their married daughter, Gladys Farmer, also resided with her parents in 1920. She was 24 years of age and had given birth to a stillborn son in Tullytown the previous month. We have found no records for her husband, Clayton S. Farmer, following their marriage. The three youngest of the Bloomfield's children were also enumerated with them, and all had attended school within the census year. Allice was 18 years old; Edward was 14; and Chester was 13. Additionally, a farm laborer, William Shock, age 60, was enumerated as a boarder in the Bloomfield household in 1920.6 
Death*19 December 1921He died on 19 December 1921 in Tullytown, Bucks County, at age 692,3 
Burial*22 December 1921 and was buried on 22 December 1921 in Tullytown Cemetery, Bristol, Bucks County.3,2
