Bladen Family Trees and Family History
Distribution of Bladens in the UK

Statistics show the Bladen name growing, whilst the Bladon and Blaydon names are showing a slight decline:
BLADENS:  Total on the electoral roll for 1881 is 368, going up to 767 by 1998. Therefore +399.
Occurrences per million of population = 14 in 1881, rising to 21 in 1998 = +7.
BLADONS:  Total on the electoral roll for 1881 is 535, going up to 657 by 1998. Therefore +122.
Occurrences per million of population = 20 in 1881, falling to 18 in 1998 = -2.
BLAYDONS: Total on the electoral roll for 1881 is 139, falling to 114 in 1998. Therefore -25.

United States, Top State = Maryland
According to the US census of 2000, the census bureau tabulated that the Bladen name had 727 occurrences in 2000. This puts the present-day numbers of Bladens in the US at almost the same number as UK Bladens in 1998 (767). Whilst there are no figures to show how the US number evolved, it is probably fair to say that the US Bladens are increasing faster than their UK counterparts.
