Margaret Blackstone married Joseph Harry Barnum

She was the daughter of Thomas Blackstone , born 1833, in Georgia, died in battle April 1862, Williamsburg VA.  (He may be John Thomas) She was born 1858, died 1921 in Oconee County. Her son, James Thomas Barnum born 1882 . ( one of Frank's boys lived with him.  Margaret's brother Benjamin , born about 1857,  had a son John F. (Frank) born about 1882.

I don't know if Margaret had another christian name . The only Margaret Blackstone I can find in the census is 1880, mother Dicy.

For certain, Margaret Blackstone & Joseph Barnum per death certs her kids. And definitely 1900 census for Ben' s son ,John F

Blackstone-493 John T. Blackstone (1842-1862) his birth date jumps around from 1823 to 1842 but I believe this is the died April of 1962 in Williamsburg, Virginia

Blackstone-1279 Margart Barnum (1858-1921) not added her to parents yet. 

---

Blackstone-1280 Benjamin Blackstone October 1857 born in Georgia 

---

Can’t find a birth or death for Joseph “Joe” Harry Barnum

---

Blackston-185 Cleveland Blackstone (1904-1950)

---

and was John Thomas Blackstone born 1833 in Georgia was named Mary Neil Blackston Livingston if this is correct do you see information on her 

---

No BLACKSTOCK. Blackstone/Blackston

You have to study and decide.

There's wills for Barnum and Blackston in Georgia but I use my phone to internet so too small to read wills

And they go Georgia to South Carolina to Georgia and some of the mens  might be diffllerent mens who had wives and kids same names. Big confusions LOL so you study and decide

---

Ok I appreciate this information

Notes on this profile Blackstone-493 John T. Blackstone (1842 - 1862) T maybe Thomas
