Individual Details

Larkin Powell Blackburn (adopted)

(Abt, 1836 - January 9, 1896)

"I am trying to find the person who told me that Larkin Powell Blackburn's true father's name was possibly Dr. Smyth or another doctor. This was told to me in 1998. This is an oral tradition that was passed down. Larkin Powell Blackburn was adopted by Noah Blackburn. His mother was Nancy Blackburn. Noah and Nancy were married in 1839 and Larkin was born in 1836." (Mary (Newsum) Yoho, 2007.)
