Query:
 I don't have a question, just information. For anyone interested in the surname Bland. There is a small cemetery named Bland located just off of 'E'on NE 771 in Knob Noster. My grandparents had a farm at the end of this road and I spent alot of time there when I was growing up. The cemetery used to be very visible right on the gravel road (now known as NE 771)just a few yards north of 'E'. I know at one point thirty or so years ago several of the graves were being washed away (the land right up to the edge is farmed on three sides) due to erosion and sometime after that minimal repairs were made. Today, if you want to find the cemetery, take 'E' east about a mile past Valley City, at the crest of a small hill NE 771 turns off North. Just as soon as you turn onto NE 771 look on the left side of the road (west) and it appears to be just a grown up fence line at the edge of a farm field. When the farmer has corn planted its impossible to see. At one time there was a swinging sign post where the cemetery meets the road that said 'Bland Cemetery'.

 My father, James Albert Granger, was born in Warrensburg, MO in 1891. His father's name was Frank E. Granger who was born in 1867 and died in 1912. Frank E. Granger is buried at Valliant, OK. I am trying to find my grandmother's correct name. It could possibly be Frances Drake Granger or "Fannie." My father had a brother named George and two sisters named Della and Myrtle. I do not know if any of his siblings were born in Warrensburg. The family moved to southeastern Oklahoma in the early 1900's. Any information on the Granger family would be greatly appreciated.
