DR. JOHN J. BLAKELEY was born March 26, 1834, in Trigg County; he is the
second of a family of nine children born to William S. and Louisa (Haggard)
Blakeley.  The father was born in North Carolina in 1801, and died in Trigg
County, Ky., in 1865; the mother was a native of Virginia, and was born in
1811.  They were among the earliest settlers of this county.  Our subject,
at about the age of thirty-three, commenced the study of medicine under the
preceptorship of his brother, Dr. W. H. Blakeley; having studied four
years, he went to Cincinnati and attended the Pulte Medical College, after
which he went to St. Louis and attended the Hahnemann Medical College, and
graduated in the class of 1872; he then returned to Trigg County, at which
time his brother, Dr. Blakeley, removed to Bowling Green; he at once
assumed his brother's practice, and has since been engaged in the practice
of his chose profession.  He owns a farm of 125 acres, where he now
resides, and is also engaged in agriculture.  He was married in June, 1858,
to Almira E. Blakeley, a native of Trigg County. Four children have blessed
this union--two sons and two daughters.  He is a member of the Masonic
fraternity, also a member of the Baptist Church.
