When he was two years old his father, Moses Blackburn, died, and his mother, Sarah Blackburn, removed to Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, and in that county he was reared to manhood. He then went to Jefferson County, Ohio, where he lived some six years, removing thence to Morgan County, Ohio, where he made his home for thirteen years, engaged in agricultural pursuits. He then sold his land in Morgan County, and in 1876 bought his present farm in Jackson Township, which contains 160 acres of choice land under a high state of cultivation. This is one of the best farms to be found in the township, and his commodious two-story residence, built in modern style, and farm buildings are large and comfortable. Mr. Blackburn was united in marriage April 27, 1843, to Catherine Elliot, a native of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Ten children have been born to this union of whom only five are living -- Sarah A., Robert W., Maria, Thomas E. and Nancy. Margaret, Mary, Samuel W., Minerva and Ida are deceased.
