Joseph was indeed a minister and started a church. I have seen it, it was quite lovely, and still standing in the late 1970's. His son Charles Bluford, ('Bluf' as he was known) was a farmer and my father spent many summers on his farm in Mt. Herman, raising horses, I also visited this site.... the green went on forever. My grandfather Arthur worked for the railroad. Which of Josephs children are you descended from? Patti Seale[2] This profile is a collaborative work-in-progress.
