Was his father named Alva, and the grandfather named Jeremiah? If this is the person you seek, may I offer a suggestion? Looking at the SSDI, I see that NO location for his last residence is posted. The (VA) you see in that column is a Social Security internal code and does not mean Virginia or Veteran's Administration. PLEASE forgive me if I have told you something you already know. If you do not know where Henry A. Blackburn died, have you or your cousin ordered his Social Security application? If not, you might be surprised by when Henry actually applied for it. I could not locate my grandfather's place of death. I got his Social Security application, and he applied ONE month before he died in 1971! That gave me a state to look in. I hope you find Henry's resting place.
