Default Formula to return position of the next Non-blank cell in a column

Given the position of a non-blank cell in a column, is there a way to return
the position of the next non-blank cell in the same column?

Example:
The given position of A1 is not blank. There is an unknown number of
consecutive spaces (blank cells) that follow in the same column. Is there a
formula that will tell me the position of the next non-blank cell?

A
1 Test
2
3
4
5
6 UnknownData

The formula should be able to somehow return the row number or position of
the next non-blank cell, in this case would be row 6 or cell A6. Keep in
mind that the next value is unknown. Is this possible?

Thanks,
Paul
