Pat, At work today, I met a woman who said she was related to my husband. It came as a shock to find that HER father was Garrett Tillman Blailock b. 20 Mar 1895 and d. Oct 1979(found that info on the internet SS Death notices)..He married Jesse Lee Brewer(1st wife) and then Eunice Cothern(known to the family as "Big Momma" b. 27 Jul 1909 and d. August 1971. I know of only one child (the woman I spoke with)and her name is Johnnie. Franklin Penn and Garrett are brothers and Garrett was the oldest, Johnnie thinks. Franklin Penn married Aletha Estelle Bass 16 Jan 1921 in McComb, MS. He retired from the Illinois Central Railroad. Their children are Jackson Penn, Nancy Marie, Mary Joyce and Ida Nell. Family members think that Garrett and Franklin's Dad's name was Stonewall Jackson Blailock and he died in Jackson MS at almost 100 years old. Thats all I know. Does this add anything to what you know? Can you link some names and dates for me? I would greatly appreciate it. Dianne
