Hi Doc,
I found three websites [using PlantFacts -
http://plantfacts.ohio-state.edu/] that address blackberry propagation
techniques. Hopefully they will give you some ideas and options.

Propagating Deciduous Fruit Plants Common to Georgia - most comprehensive
site I've found, with detailed steps through the different propagation
processes.

Blackberry and Raspberry Culture for the Home Garden - Recommends both root
cuttings and relocating naturally-occurring sucker plants.

Plant Propagation by Leaf, Cane, and Root Cuttings: Instructions for the
Home Gardener - suggests Leaf-bud Cuttings for Blackberry
