Gee Lloyd, you didn't have to go all the way to Chile to find Rebecca Blackman.  Her first cousin, Lansford Warren Hastings, did settle some Ex-Confederate officers in Brazil.

Did you know there was such a notorious fellow in your tree?  Check out my Hastings web page for information on my husband's g-g-g uncle Lansford Warren Hastings of Donner Party "fame".  Lansford was named for his mother's (and your Rebecca's mother's) brother Lansford Wood.

Welcome to the family!
Louise Hastings

P.S. here is something I received in 1998 regarding Rebecca Wood, Blackman.  I don't know if Ken Shute is still out there, but you could try his e-mail address to see:

quote:  Here are my findings on Hiram and Rebecca BLACKMAN:

1.) History of the Fire Lands, Comprising Huron and Erie Counties, Ohio, by W. W. Williams. Page 454 in Section on Groton Township, Erie County. "Among other early setlers (ca 1809-1811) may be named the following: Hiram Blackman."

I could find no reference to Hiram and Rebecca in our Huron County, Ohio, publications.

2.) Erie County, Ohio Cemetery Census before 1909.  Published by Erie County Cemetery Project Volunteers, 1989.  p. 106, Sand Hill Cemetery, Groton Township.

Asenath L. Blackman D: Sept 31 (?) 1813 or 1819-8 yrs, 6m, 16d
Careline A. Blackman D: April 10, 1856 d/o H. & S. Blackman (the S. s/b R)
Hiram Blackman D: Nov. 9, 1851 74y, 8m, 24d h/o Rebecca Blackman
Ira Blackman D: Feb. 16, 1846 18y, 5m, 7d s/o Hiram & Rebecca Blackman
Mary E. Blackmon or Blackman D: Mar., 3, 1813 or 1819 8m, 13d
Rebecca Blackman w/o Hiram Blackman (no dates given)
William A. Blackman D: Sept. 25, 1852 s/o J. & L. Blackman
