I have recieved a little more info. partially credited to my earlier post. So I thought I would keep digging.
My grandparents lived in Campbell Co. in a house next door to the elementary school in Elk Valley. A very nice lady wrote and told me that the house had burned down one day during school hours and they had seen it burning from the school. Maybe this will ring a bell with someone. My grandparents names where Vembert and Jaylee (incorrect spelling most likely) Blankenship. They had 6 children, JB, Jess (Frank), Louis (my father), Centennial (Tina or Tenny), Betty and Arlene. The children moved mostly to the Cincinnati area, except for Betty who is said to have married a Jim Watson and lives somewhere in Indiana. Tina has passed away. JB and Lou live in Elk Valley. Arlene and Jess live in the Cincinnati Ohio area although he frequently travels to Elk Valley. At some point my grandparent moved to Cincinnati where they divorced and eventually passed away.

If anyone knows any info on the Blankenship family, please share :o) recent illness has left me wanting to find my roots while I can.

Thank you in advance,

Lori
