My grandmother passed away in 2000, her name was Imogene Castle,Blackburn, recently I was at my mother's house cleaning up in her attic and ran across some of my grandmother's things that she had.
One was a family bible that she kept names and dates of alot of the blackburns born,married,deaths etc.... it seems to go back to 7 generations. Most of my blackburn roots come from a ky, some in torch light,johnson county ky, and a place called little blain ky as well as louisa,ky if anyone would like me to look anything up for them please feel free to let me know.
