I am looking for the parents of John Nathaniel Blanton
Born August 6, 1877-Died April 28, 1950. John had two surviving brothers living in Gaffney at the time of his death---Jim Blanton and Nathan Blanton. He married Nancy Jane Blanton--her parents were Hiram Landrum Blanton and Mariah C. Moseley. Nancy had two brothers that I know of: James H. Blanton and William T. Blanton and one sister Ila D. Blanton Lawter. I am also trying to find out who H.L. Blanton's and Mariah C. Mosely's parents were. Anyone with any information, please get in touch with me. Thanks, Brenda Burnett Hawkins. John Blanton was my grandfather. H. L. Blanton born July 22, 1855 - died December 21, 1899. Mariah born September 13,1858-died January 1, 1934. H. L. buried at Corinth Baptist Church in Gaffney. Mariah moved to Union after his death. She is buried at Rosemont Cemetery in Union, SC
