Notes
General:

W.P. Blanks was born in what is known as the Cook Settlement, Libert Township, St. Francois County, Missouri November 29, 1838 and is the son of Zeno T. and Maria (Withers) Blanks and grandson of Shadrack and Lydia (Perrin) Blanks.

His Grandparents were born, reared, and married in Louisa County, Virginia Shadrack Blanks was a farmer by occupation. He moved from his native county after marriage and settled in Lincoln County, Kentucky where he died. His widow came to Missouri with Zeno Blanks and settled in Liberty Township. Zeno was born in Lincoln County, Kentucky near what was known as Crab Orchard. He came to Missouri with his mother, located in Liberty Township on what is known as the Crow Farm and built the present brick house that stands there, though the present owners have made an addition to it. Here the mother died, and here Mr. Zeno Blanks also passed his last days. He died in 1844. His widow survived him about 6 years. Both were members of the Christian Church.
Mr. Blanks was an old line Whig in his political preferences and had held the office of Justice of the Peace for some time. W.P. Blanks, the subject of this sketch, was reared in Liberty Township, St. Francois Co. and secured a fair education in the schools of that county. He was reared to farm life and about 1861 he engaged in mercantile pursuits at Libertyville where he continued until the fall of 1884 and then sold out. Just before the completion of the Iron Mountain Branch Road through Knob Lick he, in connection with John E. Clardy, erected a building in the last named place, and engaged in merchandising there. They afterward dissolved the partnership and Mr. Blanks was not connected with business in Knob Lick. In the fall of 1884 he removed his family to Know Lick and has ever since resided there.
He was married in DeSoto, Mo. Aug. 16, 1869 to Miss Minerva Bainbridge a native of Jonesboro,Ill., and daughter of Col. Allen and Nancy (Spiller) Bainbridge. Both parents were natives of Tenn., but later removed to DeSoto,Mo. Col. Bainbridge was engaged in milling and merchandising while in Jonesboro,Ill. He also represented his county two terms in the Legislature. After removing to DeSoto,Mo. he engaged in fruit growing and died Oct.28,1873. His wife is still living and is now residing in St. Louis.
To Mr. & Mrs Blanks were born these children: Florence E., Maria B., Arthur Withers, Mary Alice, and Anna Grace. Mr. Blanks is a member of Knob Lick Lodge No.337 AOUW and is treasurer of the same. He represented the lodge in the general convention at St. Louis in Feb.1888. He is a Democrat in his political views, and with his wife and two daughters is a member of the Christian Church, of which he is an elder.
Shadrack Blanks is appointed surveyor of the road from the Hickman road near Valentine Hermans towards the courthouse to intersect the Paint Lick road in the room of Josephus Perrin. It is ordered that he with the tithes allotted for the purpose do clear and keep the same in repair according to law.
