There
are two lasting gifts we can give our children,
One is roots, the
other wings.

Welcome
to my web site. My name is Deborah Blanton McCoy.
I have been researching my family since 1994.
My major surnames are BLANTON, SAUNDERS, PRESTIDGE,
MILLS and McANEAR. If you are researching one of these
surnames, I hope this site will be of help to you. I have made every
endeavor to provide accurate information. If you find an error
on one of my pages, please let me know. Please
e-mail me if you find that we have ancestors in common. I love
meeting new cousins.
I am part of
a group of Blanton researchers called the
Blanton Family Historians. We have been researching the Blanton line
since 1999. Please visit our site at:
This
website is dedicated in loving memory of my dad, Bobby
Lee Blanton,
and my grandparents, Wilbur Alexander Blanton and Josephine
Milam Saunders.
Most of the information
on my direct lines comes from primary and secondary sources; but much of the information
on my collateral lines comes from other reserachers. I have not included my
source information here, but I will gladly share my sources for
any information if you are interested. As with any genealogical
work of this magnitude, there will be errors. Please use this information
as a guide and verify it with proper documentation.
I have
removed the information contained in my notes due to the fact that
I was finding it on other web sites without proper source documentation.
If you take information from other people, please reference
them as your source. This will help you to determine what
information needs to be proven with proper sources and will give
credit to the individual who gave you the information.
