A story about his family written by W. C. Blancett of Newport,Arkansas. In 1940 (the notebook, in 1973, in the possession of Mrs.Kathleen (Blanscet) Valentine of Paris, Logan County, Arkansas.
"This is the way he wrote it and the way I typed it, so it is true tohis word."
The Genealogy of the Blancett Family in the United States of America
One P. Blancett called Petter. We do not know whether his name wasPetter or Patric but he was called Pete came from Ireland sometimebefor the year of 1812 for he was in the war of 1812.
When he was mustered out of service at Montgomery Alabama he came toPratville in the same state. Not liking that hot sultry country hepurchased him a teem and wagon and married him a wife by the name ofJosephine Whetstine and left that country and never did go back. Hiswife never seene her people any more but he sittled in north Alabamain Jackson county at the place where now is Wannville. There he takenup grate quantity of land. There was a large Pond of water on theplace and it was vbery clear and good so old Petter bilt his housenear the Pond and it (the Pond ) goes by the name of Petters Ponduntill this day. 1940 their is a large Church House bilt at the Pondand it is called Petters Pond Church.
From him there was born 5 boys and 2 girls as follows Jem the oldestLeroy the next John the next Harden the next Archeble Dicklenthe next and youngest boy. then Patsy and Salley
Now the first boy Jem Blancett married a Shaffet and from his was born3 children Bill and Jorden., Boys and Emley one girl. I do not nowho Bill married but from his was born one child it was a girl andits name was Emley same as its aunt and she married James Thornhill.

She did not marry anymore Jane married a Morries a Horse Driver form KY and they wentthere and after the war Jane came back to Allabama a widda never mar.
Next was John married Betsy Norman and from them was born 17children I could not tell all of their names.

Staid with them 15 days andwent back to Ala on the same horse and brought their mother here toArk and she lived and died at their house never married any mor afterPanter left her but her tow boys was always the hite of her ambitionand she died at one of their houses being very old.

Now this young Arch had a boy by the name Press and one name Sun.Press was killed as I have done told and Sun lives in Sulphur SpringsGa if he is not dead he is very old
You see I am 75 years old today and I am writing this just like I knewit 50 years ago.
But about Uncle Hard you no Ant Polly was a widda and Sally callHards Sal and the two Panter boys all lived together on Sand Mountain.Uncle Hard after his wife Ant Polly got old he had lots of moneyand there was a real poretty Girl in the settlement her name wasLiddie Hampten Uncle Hard was good looking and so he left his homewife and children and took Lid Hamten and ran away going in SequachiaValley Bledsow County Tenn and lived and died there raising on boy hiscalled him Mart and he made the best Lawer that was ever known inChattanooga Tenn.
Well this a statement that is true yet there is a number of thechildren and grandchildren and great grandchildren of old Uncle PetterBlancett that is not mention because I dont no them but this is thestarting of them in the U.S. from 1812 to 1940

Newport, Ark.
Rt 3 Box 15D
"on a page by its self at the back of the composition book is thefollowing."
Now cosin William this Filia Blancett first married a man by thename of Hammans under the old Law of matrimony and from her and himwas born 2 boys Nute and Ben but Hamans disepered and Ant Filemarried Dave Hayse. Mary Blancett Leroys girl did the same thingand Hardwn daughter Salley Press also married Panter and he left heror my Ant Marry never married any more but lived a good life till theydied Getting fooled once was enough for them.
Notes from Mrs. Kathleen (Blanscet) Valentine of Paris, Logan County,Arkansas: She thinks that William C. Blancett should be a Sr. not aJr.
Leroy's daughters are first listed as Patsy and Salley. Later, intelling about the individual marriages and families (same paragraph).he refers to them as Besty and Mary. A review of the entire storysuggests that Patsy and Salley were "Old Petter's daughters, withBetsy and Mary being Leroy's. Was Jane, who married a Morries fromKY., Leroy's thrid daughter?

!* His obituary from The Spectator gives his birth date as September29, 1989
and his age as 35 at the time of his death. I believe that he wasactually 35
based on information from his family. I think it is likely that hisdate of
birth was 1953. His obituary is on file in scrapbook.
