I have Nancy Blankenship's father as John? >>From ECPauley- I am usually just a very interested observer in our group, but I just had to get involved in the Blankenship discussion. I have nothing to contribute, but would welcome any information on my Blankenship line which is so far back that I have almost nothing. I go back to Ralph Blankenship, born about 1662 in Henrico Co., VA. died 1714, married Martha. He was the father of James Blankenship, born in Henrico Co., VA, and married Mary. Their daughter, Nancy Ann Blankenship, born about 1730, married Francis Farley, Jr. Francis and Nancy were my 4th great grandparents. The Farleys were in the Monroe/Summers County area. I don't know if any of these Blankenships made their way into this area.<< Descendants of James Blankinship Generation No. 1 1.
