I believe u are referring 2 "Blackburn." What is interesting about the study of family names is that often times it was a woman's maiden name that was carried on...

The conversation is difficult to have without everyone's history.

Last names at times referred to a trade the family was involved with...such as "Blacksmith."

"Baker," one can assume it may have been Bakers.
"Burg," represents Town, which is the oldest known recorded last name historically, I believe. cool

it's a play on words ..the actual name is HILLBURN
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81
