Hello Everyone,

This is my first post to the list, and it isnt a very good one. The
reason being is that I am looking for my Calvin Blankenship without much to
go on.
I found Calvin BLankenship married to Deliah on the 1850 Texas County, MO
census. Living next door to Calvin is WIlliam Blankenship and his wife,
Pamela Jane. Since Calvin was only a couple of years older than William, I
have to assume they are related, if not brothers, because they were the only
Blankenships in TExas County at this time and they were both born in TN and
both of their wives in IL (just thought that was interesting). SInce Calvin
Died during the civil war (there is no record on him except a muster roll),
he wasnt around when the government started asking where their parents were
born. I followed Deiliah until 1880. I estimate her time of death between
1881-1883. I followed William, and he lists his parents as also being born in
TN ..... although its a shot in the dark, is there anyone out there that has
a link to a BLANKENSHIP's that had a son named Calvin, (who was born abt
1820-25) and/or William (b. abt.1823-1826). I do not have Calvin's parents
names or their wives maiden names. I am hoping to connect them to someone who
might be able to shed some light on this for me ....
Thank you in advance!!!!

Thank you!
