This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Blackburn, Emerson, Phillips Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/5519/SNE.2ACIB/984.2.1.2.1.1.1 Message Board Post: The only name that sounds familiar is Emit. The Emerson and Blackburn side I know little about. I had an Uncle Phillip Blackburn that lived in Tulsa, Emit was my grandfather who was married to Minnie Lee Phillips. I think that Emit had a brother named William or Bill. Emit's children were Mary, John, Phillip, Elmer, Hannah, and William (Bill). Mary was my grandmother on my mother's side. If any of this sounds familiar please contact me with anything that you have as I don't have much to go on and am stumped.
