Narrative

James was a clergyman of the Methodist Protestant Church, though his duties were only local. The greater part of his life was spent in West Virginia, and he was a private soldier in the Confederate army and wounded in the battle of Shiloh. He died in 1889 and his widow in 1907. James Blizzard's first wife was a daughter of Rev. A. T. Morrison, of Nicholas County, and she became the mother of ten children. His second wife, Elizabeth Gill, was the mother of thirteen children.
