Meet The Family...
We are the California Blackburns. Here you will find the story of the Children of John A. Blackburn and Regina F. Hanschmann (Hilgart ). It is a story of who we are where we came from and to some extent where we might be going. I have created this website as a resource for our children so they might discover something about their roots and maybe about themselves. Family is the most important thing we can have in a lifetime. A connection with our past and our future. I hope you find something here that makes a connection for you.
