I have looked and looked and cannot find where I got the info that George was the son of James Thomas Blake.I do know that Henry Lester Blake was living with them in 1910, 1920, and 1930.Henry was b in 1908.The 1910 census shows Henry as a son but 1920 and 1930 census shows him as a grandson which makes sense based on the age of James Thomas Blake and Henry Blake.There is 72 yrs difference in their age.The 1910 census shows that James Thomas and wife Mary had only been married 8 years and it was the second marriage for both of them.Mary was at least 30 years younger than her husband.My question is, who was the mother of your Jesse Blake - where was he born - when was he born, etc?I spoke to the grandson of Henry Lester Blake last night and he is going to try and get some info from his mother.Will let you know if I find some info.
