Another fact that may be confusing the Blackburns married to Romans is that a James Blackburn married Margaret Roman on Nov 10, 1839 in Pike County.

Ky. : : : This message is to clarify some confusion concerning Thomas, : William, and : Hudson Blackburn. Thomas Blackburn came to Floyd County Ky. ca 1806 : from : Virginia. A 1809 Floyd county record documents the marriage of : William : Blackburn and Jenny Maynard. William was born in 1790 and is : considered a : son of Thomas due to the age difference of over 25 years. : : First record of Hudson (b-1795) is the 1820 census. He was married : to Mary : ? and there is no record of the marriage. The name Mary comes from : the 1850 : Pike County census. Lately some people have been using the name : Mary Roman : which is unconfirmed. The use of the Roman name with old Hudson is : probably : due to confusion with the younger Hudson who married a Roman. It is : noted : that the name Hudson was used by the Akers family (Hudson Akers) in : Buckingham Co VA. : : The names Thomas, William and Hudson have been used continuously in : the : Blackburn family up to and including present times. : : Ron Blackburn : [email protected] : : : ==== BLACKBURN Mailing List ==== : Your donations to RootsWeb makes BLACKBURN-L possible. : RootsWeb Gen.
