    1. Re: [BLANKENSHIP] Franklin Blankenship
    2. HI Tammy, The Franklin Blankenship I am in search of, was born abt. 1852 in Texas County, Missouri. Son of Calvin and Deilah Blankenship. He may of been married to Mary or maybe he was married to a Julia M. Sullivan. I found a Franklin on the 1880 boone Twp Census, married to Mary, and this Franklin Matches up perfectly in age to the one I am searching, but I cannot find him in a marriage book. Then the other Franklin that is found in 1900 Census of Lynch Twp is Married to Julia, Feb 1847 is the date given for his birth, but my Franklin didnt appear with his parents until 1860 and he was only 8 at the time, BUT what makes me hold onto this Franklin is that he lists his father from TN, and his mother from IL, which is exactly where Calvin and Delilah are from???? But the one from VA is not mine :( Misty Wright (Researching: Adkins (Texas Co, MO, then CA), Blankenship (Texas CO, MO), Bradley (NC then Fulton, CO, AR), Easte (MO then Fayette CO, IL), Gatewood (Fayette CO, MO), Madison(Jackson CO, MO), Matherson, McCaslin, Montgomery (Izard CO/Fulton CO,AR), Moore (Fulton CO, AR), Neal (Fulton CO, AR), Smith (MS then Dent CO, Mo then Texas Co, MO) Stricklin (Dent CO, MO)

It took me a long time to understand this. I was raised in an area where everyone had the same basic religious beliefs.

    1. [BLANKENSHIP] RE: Church of England
    2. Hey researchers, I found this while doing some other research. I have always heard that the people left England because of their religion and could not get along with the STATE CHURCH, also known as the Church of England. I have often wondered why ones religion would be such a problem. I guess I was asleep in history class when the teacher was trying to teach me all of this. There was no freedom to choose what a person believed or how he could worship. After reading this article I can better understand the problem the people have in going to the Church of England, and wanting to leave England and start their own church. This one article has opened my eyes to the life and times of the early explorers of the New World. I also noticed that there was a James VI of Scotland that was to become James I of England. (When Queen Elizabeth I died in 1604 and James VI of Scotland was to become James I of England, he traveled the post road on his way to be crowned.) I think I need to set back here and do some more studies on the history of England and Scotland. I would like to see just how close these two were in the Old World. I hope this help someone else as much as it has helped me. Here is the link to the website if you would like to read more about the Plymouth Colony and Pilgrims. http://www.rootsweb.com/~mosmd/#part1 Sue B. Altice THE STATE CHURCH At the time the Pilgrim Fathers were living in England there was only one church approved by the English rulers. Everyone was required to attend that church -- and ONLY that church -- every week. If the English ruler were Protestant, all people of the realm were required to follow the Protestant beliefs and attend those church services; if the ruler were Catholic, everyone in the kingdom was required to practice the Catholic faith and rituals. All religion in the kingdom was strictly dictated by the government. This is what we call a "State Church." The reigning ruler appointed the archbishop of his or her choice and every church in the kingdom was under the direct orders of the ruler and the archbishop. There was no freedom to choose what a person believed or how he could worship. Anyone who objected to the beliefs of the state church or the forms of the church services could be arrested, questioned and thrown into prison. If they refused to give up their personal beliefs, they could be tortured in an effort to make them agree with the state church. If they still refused to give up their convictions after torture, they could be executed. Many people were imprisoned, tortured and put to death. Those who were executed for their religious beliefs died painful deaths. Many were hanged and quartered, some were burned at the stake, while others were crushed to death under heavy weights. There were two major groups of believers who disagreed with the beliefs and practices of the Church of England. One group wanted to stay in the church, but hoped to change its forms of worship: This group was called "Puritan" because they wanted to "purify" the church. The other group did not believe the state church could be changed: This group was called "Separatist" because they wanted to separate completely from the Church of England. At the beginning of the 1600s, a group of Separatists began to gather at Scrooby in the northeastern county of Nottingham. Scrooby was located on the main post road which ran between Scotland and London. When Queen Elizabeth I died in 1604 and James VI of Scotland was to become James I of England, he traveled the post road on his way to be crowned. James I was a Protestant and the Separatists were hopeful he would be more tolerant of differing religious views. It was not long, however, before the Separatists learned that differing religious views would not be allowed under the new king.

    2. Is there anyone out there, that has a William C. Blankenship from Tennesse, born abt. 1823-26. He was married to Pamela June who was born in Illinois abt. 1832. Their children were Nancy, born 1849, Joseph L, b. abt 1862, and Louis b. abt 1866. They had their grandson's William L (born abt 1870), and Lameul (sp? could be Samuel, b. abt 1872) Giddeons, living with them in 1880. They probably had more children, unless these grandson's are Nancy's children. I have only found them on the 1860 & 1880 Texas County, MO Census. If these are your relatives please let me know! I have reason to believe that WIlliam was my Calvin Blankenship's brother.

    1. [BLANKENSHIP] RE: Ships named Ann and Little James
    2. Hey researchers, I am sending this to the post board just because I find it very interesting. That a ship bring people from Leiden and landing in Plymouth, MA, would have the same name of OUR Ann Blankinship and her son James Blankinship. I have not made any connection with the ship and Ann or James at this time. The source for this information in on the website I have given you the link below. Sue B. Altice http://www.mayflowerfamilies.com/ships/ann.htm Ann & Little James The vessels parted company at sea; the ANN arrived the latter part of June, and the LITTLE JAMES some week or ten days later; part of the number were the wives and children of persons already in the Colony The ship Anne arrived in Plymouth in July, 1623 accompanied by the Little James, bringing new settlers along with many of the wives and children that had been left behind in Leiden when the Mayflower departed in 1620.
