Good! I'm glad when I can help someone. The Blackford GenWeb site is a good place to look for the above surnames.

Yes, my dear, you can help ~ if you have a scanner. I would dearly love to have a color scanned image of the Blount Bible you have, and the obit you have for Sarah. If it's not do-able, I understand. I have a collection going of scanned images of family bibles. I don't have one for the Blount family yet.

Did you know that Basheba was a Twibell, and her father fought in the Revolutionary War?

I DO NOT HAVE A SCANNER, BUT MAYBE I CAN USE SOMEBODIES. I WILL HAVE TO CHECK IT OUT. MY BROTHER HAS THE BIBLE.

I FOUND SOME LETTERS TO JOHN BLOUNT AND ONE OF THEM SAID HE HAD SEEN UNCLE THOMAS TWIBELL, SO I LOOKED UP THAT NAME AND THAT IS HOW I HAVE FOUND OUT THE CONNECTION AND THE INFO ON JOHN.

WHAT SIDE OF THE FAMILY ARE YOU RELATED TO?

JOAN

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

JOHN BLOUNT MARRIED BASHABA ON APRIL 24, 1856. THEY HAD 1 CHILD JOE. JOE HAD 2 CHILDREN BERNARD AND ESTELLA AND LIVED IN LINCOLN CTY. KS. I DON'T KNOW WHERE BASHABA IS BURRIED, BUT I AM SURE JOHN IS BURRIED AROUND LINCOLN CTY, KS. I KNOW SOME OF THE INFO I HAVE SEEN ON THE NET SAYS THEY HAD A DAUGHTER SARAH, BUT SARAH WAS JONAS JARRETT DAUGHTER. IN MY G-GRANDFATHER JOE'S PAPERS I FOUND HER OBIT AND IT SAYS SHE WAS JONAS AND BASHABA DAUGHTER.

IF YOU HAVE A SCANNER I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE PICTURE OF JOE AND FAMILY.

I JUST LUCKED INTO THIS WEB SITE TODAY. I FOUND THE NAME UNCLE THOMAS TWIBELL IN ONE OF THE LETTERS WRITTEN TO JOHN AND FOUND IT HERE SO AM VERY GRATEFUL.

LET ME KNOW IF YOU NEED ANYMORE INFO FROM MY SIDE. HOW ARE YOU RELATED?

I am related to both the Twibell's and the Blount's, both on my Dad's side. From the Twibell's: John to Josiah to John Jackson to Loura Alice to John Foster to William Roll, who was my granddad. On the Blount side: William to Andrew R. to John Henry to John J. Henry to Olive to Treva Maretta, who was my grandma. William and Treva were my Dad's parents.

It sounds like you found a treasure! Letters, obituaries, a family bible. Those things can reveal information about the past that we wouldn't know otherwise. I'm envious and happy for you.

Is there anything else that I can share with you?
