Not trying to be picky, but Chesterfield Co VA did not exist in 1735. It was formed from Henrico Co in 1749.

Added his 1776 sticker, DAR society sticker and the link to the DAR as source. I also adjusted birth yr to 1737 as given in the DAR and Find a Grave.

Blankinship-164 and Blankenship-892 appear to represent the same person because: dups with same son Henry. Final surname should match BlankEnship father.
