Researcher Rob Ford discovered a small piece of text in the Chicago Defender which led to this international search and discovery. It has been discovered that Arthur "Blind" Blake spent some time living in Milwaukee, WI just after his recording sessions in Grafton. His death certificate and coroner's report were located in Milwaukee, WI. Blake is buried in the Glen Oaks Cemetery off of Green Bay Road in Glendale, WI. The Grafton Blues Association, a non-profit 501c3, is raising funds for Arthur "Blind" Blake's unmarked grave. Our intent is to secure a proper headstone for this Paramount Recording artist, and any excess funds will go into an ongoing fund to support such future endeavors for the Delta Blues musicians that traveled to Grafton.
