Alfred "Teen" Blackburn (born in Hamptonville, North Carolina, April 26, 1842 – March 8, 1951) was the last Confederate Civil War veteran to receive a Class B pension in North Carolina. He was known throughout Yadkin County for his strength, size and longevity. He was the last living person in Yadkin County to have been a slave. He was also believed to be one of the last living survivors of slavery in the United States who had clear recollection of it (i.e.: not born a slave and freed as a child.) [citation needed]
