Jeb Blankenship

 is a character in Red Dead Redemption.

Jeb is the subject of the stranger mission Who Are You to Judge?.

Background
Jeb was happily married to Grace Blankenship who died in 1907. It is possible that Jeb lost his sanity when she died and so he later became in love with a Horse named Lucy.

Interactions
The stranger mission Who Are You to Judge? sees Marston meet him. He wants Marston to find his "Love" in Tumbleweed. It later becomes apparent that his "Love" is in fact, a Horse called Lucy.

Trivia

 * In the Tumbleweed cemetery, there is a tombstone of a woman named Grace Blankenship who died in 1907 and is survived by 'loving husband Jeb'. This is most assuredly the resting place of Jeb's late wife. (Or possibly Jeb is just sociopath and "Grace" is just another horse)


 * He and Billy are similar in several ways. Both of them are driven mad by their wives dying, so they both do crazy things, Jeb falling in love with a horse, and Billy keeping his wife's corpse around.


 * Sometime after Jeb's stranger mission was completed, the newspaper says that Jeb married Lucy in Rathskeller Fork and no one attended the wedding.
