1819-1829, AL, Compiled by James W. Blankenship jkblank1(at)sbcglobal.net
A Special note about the 1820 Federal census records for Alabama: Much of
the 1820 Federal Census for Alabama was lost.
All that remains are 1820 census schedules for the following
counties: Baldwin, Conecuh, Dallas, Franklin,
Limestone, Shelby, St. Clair and Wilcox. [1]http://www.censusfinder.com/alabama.htm
Some
links are for pay for view services.
However, Edmund and Howard Blankenship were in Madison Co. for the 1811
census there (squatters) and that's about it until well after statehood. Madison Co. Historical Society has a pretty
good site.
Also, remember that until well after 1818, Alabama was administered by
the state of Mississippi. I find no Blankenships in
the 1820 Alabama records. Just what is
mentioned above.
fyi, there was a
huge panic in Madison Co. AL before 1820.
The squatters there developed an extensive IOU economy since the US
gov't would not provide currency until after the treaty taking the property
from the Indians was in force. Suddenly
it all fell apart and just as in other panics, people were ruined and had to
either retreat to old home grounds or go on westward. Many committed suicide.
So, that there is nothing about Edmund and
Howard after those squatter censuses could be for lots of reasons.
