I don't have a John W with Alice as a spouse??? >> Kay, I have no idea who these people are. Mike, Tammy and I are working hard trying to piece the Blankenships together from Pitts, Franklin and Bedford Counties. This is just some information I found and wanted the post to use if they could. I will let you know if we find anything that will link any of these names to the line of Ralph and Martha. If anyone out there knows any of the people listed please let us know. I think I found the will for William Blankenship that married Elizabeth and is the father of Abraham Blankenship Sr. that married Susan Wyatt. I am sending for a copy of what I saw on the Library of Virginia website and will let you know what I receive from them. Maybe Gayle King Blankenship can help with this list of people. Sue B. Altice
