Rockwood H. Blake was born in Nov. 1841 in Dorchester, Grafton co., NH.He was the son of Francis Blake and Abigail Clark.Abigail was the daughter of John Clark. (Rockwood is listed on the 1850 census for Dorchester.)
My husband is descended from Rockwood's brother, Francis.I have a picture which has been identified as Rockwood H. Blake and another of Mrs. Rockwood H. Blake.
The 1880 census lists him as a hotelkeeper in Grant Co., NM.The LaMesilla Times (Dona Ana Co., NM) in 1871 or 1872 gives an obituary for one of his and Guadalupe's children.
According to the draft registration, the John C. Blake living in Montrose Co., CO, is John Clark Blake.
I have the Blake ancestry documented back several generations and would love to share.
