Surnames: Blackburn Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/SNE.2ACIB/1201 Message Board Post: It seems that my Blackburns just fell out of the sky, buy maybe some new researchers can help me out. My Blackburns begin with Rebecca Blackburn born in 1861 . Rebecca was the mother of Charles, Jesse, Betty and Herbert. Rebecca had a sister named Harriet or Hattie. Hattie may have married a Thompson. I am assuming that Rebecca was a Blackburn that married a Blackburn. They were located in the Bourbon co., Ky area and then Spencer and Nelson counties. I am trying to find out who Rebecca was married too. My cousin mentioned Bird Blackburn being in this line, I have read all post relating to him but have not found a link. Thanks in advance, Jamie
