Hardin County at the area of Vertrees or Constantine, was the location of the Edward Blankenship family. Some of his children mar Capps, Shuman, Flowers, Hager, and Higdon as well as others. Also, does anyone know who Palestine Blankenship (f) and Valentine were? They lived near county lines of Meade, Hardin and Breckenridge. Later, some went to Knox and Laural Counties. Have into to exchange. Janet
