Working with his father in Parliament's financial administration both supported the regicide and benefitted from the subsequent sales of land sales from those defeated in the civil wars. Surviving the Restoration Blackwell pursued interests in Ireland, banking schemes in London and Massachusetts, before being Governor of Pennsylvania. Blackwell worked with his son, Lambert Blackwell, who established himself as a merchant, financier and a representative of the state in Italy during the wars of William III before being embroiled in the South Sea Bubble. The linked histories of the three Blackwells reinforce the importance of kinship, the development of the early modern state centred in an increasingly global London and illustrate the ownership of the memory of the civil wars, facilitated by their kin links to Cromwell and John Lambert, architect of Cromwell's Protectorate, by those who fought against Charles I.
