Ancestors of Milton Vee Rankin

As the Rankin Family Genealogy and Heirloom book project gets underway I have been seeking family tree and heritage layouts to illustrate my paternal history.

Featured below is the ancestry of my Paternal Great Grandfather, Milton Vee Rankin (1883-1954). 
I am currently undecided whether or not to leave the tags with unknown relatives names blank or to write "unknown" in them.
