Hi, I have been trying to connect with someone from my grandmothers family. She was Pearl BLANKENSHIP.Her parents were John & Lucy BLANKENSHIP. She had a sister and brother that I know of. They were Myrtle and Amon BLANKENSHIP. The family was from around Tipton County, Tn. My grandmother married L.A. Clark from same area. They moved to Okla. around 1920. If any of you are part of this line I would appreciate it if you would e-mail me.

Good Luck! I've been trying to get Sue to answer me for some time now but no response as of yet. Her new e-mail is mrslady002@cox.net. Try that and see if you can get anywhere.
