You are welcome! Glad to help in any way that I can. Nice to meet you too cousin! I think that 2nd cousin would be right. Ancestry says that your Mom and I are 1st cousins once removed, but I have never understood that!

What information do you know on your Blevins and Van Sickle relatives (your grandfather and father)? I would begin by searching to see if there are other family trees that include them. Census records have been helpful to me. Also, searching for a parallel relative (such as a sibling) can be helpful if you don't have much info because someone may have traced family back through that relative.

Now, a question for you - would anyone have any photo's of Beulah Mobley Blevins siblings? I have searched for a photo of my grandfather, Arthur D. Mobley and have yet to locate one! The photo of Beulah Mobley Blevins and John Jefferson Blevins, Sr. that I have in my Powell family tree were provided by either Vivian or Ruth and passed to me from Sawyer relatives. My Mom looked a little like Beulah when she was younger.
