When I went to restore the info, the disk corrupted, so I'm *still* re-entering 30 years of hard copy info into a new file. sigh ..... Last night, I pulled out all of my Blankenship/Daviess Co. notebooks to see what I have on Eliza who m. Richard Blankenship. Actually, I think Richard married at least 3 times. (The problem with Richard is that there are 2 Richards listed in the 1830 census that could be the one who went to Daviess Co. - one in Greenup Co., KY & one in Lawrence Co., OH.) Here is a quick outline of what I have for Richard: Descendants of Richard Blankenship 1 Richard Blankenship b: Abt. 1807 in Ohio or Kentucky .. Susannah Miller m: 05 Sep 1829 in Greenup Co., Kentucky ...... 2 George Blankenship b: Abt. 1831 in Ohio ........... Sarah b: Abt. 1833 in Ohio ...... 2 Emeline Blankenship b: Abt. 1832 in Ohio ...... 2 Benjamin F. Blankenship b: 18 Jan 1833 in Ohio d: 13 Jul 1906 ...... 2 William Blankenship b: 13 Nov 1836 in Kentucky d: 05 Mar 1911 in Pattonsburg, Benton Twp., Daviess Co., Missouri *2nd Wife of Richard Blankenship: .. Rebecca (Liza?) McLantren or McLantun b: Abt. 1812 in Ohio m: 01 Dec 1836 in Greenup Co., Kentucky ...... 2 Rematha Blankenship b: Abt. 1841 in Kentucky ...........

Amaziah Alonzo Graham b: 02 Feb 1852 in Missouri d: 02 Apr 1946 in Pattonsburg, Benton Twp., Daviess Co., Missouri m: 18 Nov 1877 in Daviess Co., Missouri Willis Blankenship's certificate of death states his mother was "Liza McLantern" or "McLantun." Difficult to read. Margaret (Blankenship) Graham's certificate of death states her mother's maiden name as "Campbell." No given name shown.
