Dear Eugenia,
I don't have information on your Hill Blanset but wonder if in your search you have found a John Henry Blancett/Blansett in Mississippi.My greatgrandfather had a brother John Henry who worked in the lumber industry.He moved from Nashville Tennessee sometime after the 1900 Census.His nieces thought he moved to Mississippi where he worked in a lumber yard.He supposedly married the bosses daughter.They had a son "Jack".John Henry died of malaria he contracted while on a trip to buy lumber.
I'd appreciate any information you have.Other than the family story and his disappearance from the Tennessee Censuses I have no other information.
Cheers,
Ginny
