According to the baptism record for Henry Montague BLYTH, Henry David BLYTH's wife was Elizabeth, but like many Kensington marriages this 1867 one is not on Ancestry.
There are candidates in the census in Paddington, but care is needed because there are two different families ...
Henry David Philip BLYTH, son of James BLYTH, merchant, and Euphemia BLYTH, baptised 7 Sep 1842 St John Hackney
Henry David BLYTH, son of Alfred BLYTH, Gentleman, and Catherine Smith BLYTH, born 8 June 1843, baptised 5 July 1843 St Anne Limehouse.
Sorry I have to log off until later, but perhaps someone else can continue?

Thank you. I just found that marriage.
I have a Henry David Blyth already on my family tree b1798 and died 1864. He married a Charlotte Pixley.
They are likely related, as my one had dealings in Mauritius. That is why I am interested in Henry Montague - but I cannot find the link.

Wow! Thanks Olliecat.
If I can link Alfred to my Henry David Blyth, who died in 1864 - perhaps they were brothers??

Who were Henry David Blyth's parents?
After checking out Alfred in the census, looks like this was his marriage, although according to the census he was born abt 1810 in Hackney/Homerton.
Possible marriage and baptism for Alfred...
groom's name: Alfred Blyth
groom's birth date: 1815
groom's age: 21
bride's name: Catharine Smith Greene
bride's birth date: 1815
bride's age: 21
marriage date: 28 Sep 1836
marriage place: Saint Mary, Bury Saint Edmunds, Suffolk, England
name: Alfred Blyth
gender: Male
baptism/christening date: 23 May 1810
baptism/christening place: St. John's, Hackney, Middlesex, England
father's name: Thomas Blyth
mother's name: Isabella
Do Alfred's parents tie into your Blyth family?

From family search, it looks like Thomas and Isabell Blyth had a number of children. Also, just found a tree that has Thomas dying in 1839.
Have you checked out the will of Thomas Blyth, Merchant and Ship Owner of Saint Ann Limehouse, proved on 04 November 1839.

Some bits and pieces from the newspapers about Alfred Blyth:
The Champion, 9 Oct 1836
(Marriage)
'At St Mary's Church, Bury, Alfred Blyth, Esq., of Limehouse, London, to Catherine, eldest daughter of Benjamin Greene, Esq., of Bury St. Edmunds.' [date of marriage not stated, though it is noted that another of B. Greene's daughters married at the same church on the same day.]
The Bury & Norwich Post of 14 June 1843 announced this birth:
'On Thursday, the 10th, inst., at Langley Place, East India Road, London, the lady of Alfred Blyth, Esq., of a son.'
(in the same paper you can find announcements of the births of a daughter at Limehouse in Oct 1838; another son at Langley Place, East India Road, in April 1840, and another son there in May 1847)
Death announced in The Bury and Norwich Post, 1 May 1883:
'BLYTH.--17th ult., at Bayswater-terrace, London, Catherine, the dearly-loved wife of Alfred Blyth, and eldest daughter of the late Benjamin Greene, of Bury St Edmund's.'

Looking through the generations leading from Thomas Blyth to Henry Montague Blyth.
It seems Thomas's son Alfred Blyth died in 1886 and from the National Probate Calender, he left a will which was proved on 15 Feb 1888.
It seems that Alfred's son Henry David Blyth died in 1923 and he also left a will which was proved on 2 Feb 1924.
So including Henry Montague Blyth, it appears that you have a will for every generation.
