Kent Blansett AKA Kent Patrick Blansett
« on: November 18, 2023, 04:32:15 am »
I had heard of Kent Blansett (no longer at UMM). I know there are questions about his claims of being “a Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Shawnee, and Potawatomi descendant from the Blanket, Panther, and Smith families.”

The first link is still there, with a link to Kent Blansett’s Family History, a 7-page PDF in Dropbox, that can be accessed by clicking that link which contains a key:

The second link in the quote now yields this: "Sorry, the page you were looking for in this blog does not exist."

At this site I found the following: https://tribalallianceagainstfrauds.org/kent-patrick-blansett
Quote
Kent Patrick Blansett
False Claims:  Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Shawnee, and Potawatomi

Then there is a downloadable fan chart (PDF; PNG) of his genealogy, going six generations back. No other information.

Thank you, Laurel! — The search function on that site is quite quirky (at least in my Safari browser for Mac). One search for 'Blansett' yielded 7 hits, and the only option was "Show all 7 posts", but the result was "No posts found". By scrolling down the front page for this year (2023), I found ten posts:

That last one regards what's written here about the FakeIndians blog. (Kent Blansett is one of those three):
