Posted on: Bienville Parish Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/La/Bienville?read=434 Surname: Whitlow, Blewer, Blackwood, Frey ------------------------- Glenda, So great to hear from you. I've had this information for years and I'm not sure where I got it....probably from relatives in the area of Saline, La. But.... Huelett Blewer was b December 17, 1886 and died February 16, 1938. I don't have the dates for Chriswell Whitlow nor do I have their children's names, spouses, and grand children. Huelett's parents were: John George Blewer Second b August 08, 1849 d January 10, 1913 in Bienville Parish, LA. He married Catherine L. Babers (no dates for her). I have the names and dates of all their children if you will email me for that at annettehp@yahoo.com John George Blewer was s/o John Peter Blewer who was b abt 1820 in SC (probably Pa. since his mother died there, supposedly) and died 1867 in Arkansas (don't have county). He married Nubilia R. Y. Ann Cook and had 4 children which I have all their names and births. Nubilia died abt 1850 in Al. and he married again Mary Sydney Barnard and had abt 6 children which I don't have exact birth dates for them. John Peter Blewer was son of John George Blewer First and Elizabeth M. Jones. He died January 06, 1826 in the Lexington District, SC and she died January 12, 1823 in Pennsylvania. I have 5 children for them and some of their birth dates. John George Blewer First was the s/o Peter Blewer b July 1748 in SC and died April 17, 1812 Charleston District (Berkley County) South Carolina and Elizabeth Unknown who died April 08, 1825 in Charleston. She had a will. We think Peter Blewer was s/o of John (Hans) Blewer of Switzerland b 1735. I connect the Blewer line through Peter & Elizabeth's daughter, Katherine Blewer who married Hans Jacob Frey b July 12, 1789 in Basel, SWitzerland. He arrived in PA. after 1800 and followed the Blewer family from Pa to Charleston where he married Katherine. The family moved then to Orangeburg District, SC; then Spartanburg Co., SC; then to Bienville Parish, La. where both died. Apparently other family members came too. Hope to hear from you as I would like to add you to my data base and find out where your Blewer family moved to from Friendship. Emma Irene Blackwood b March 16, 1877 married James Renard Frey the grandson of Hans Jacob Frey and Katherine Blewer. I have the names of their children but know very little more about them. She could be a sibling of your Blackwood or a cousin. What do you know about them? Your Blewer cousin, Ann
