Jean Blanchard, born 1611, was not the Blanchard who came to Acadia on the St. Jehan. Louis Blanchard is the only Blanchard who arrived on this transport which provides a passenger list. Louis came without a wife or a family and he left no descendents. All Blanchards in the 1671 Acadian Census of Port Royal belong to the family of Jean Blanchard and Radegonde Lambert. Jean most likely arrived at a later date on a vessel that left no passenger list. He arrived before 1642 because he married Radegonde Lambert that year in Port Royal, Acadia. As far as Anne Blanchard and Francois Guerin being first cousins - that is pure speculation! If they were cousins, Jean Blanchard would have been the brother of Marie Blanchard, Francois's mother who was married to Jerome Guerin. Perhaps Marie's brother, who came to Acadia, was the Louis Blanchard who came in 1636 on the St. Jehan and left no descendents. Perhaps Louis, Jean and Marie Blanchard were all siblings but without documentation we can never know with certainty. I LOVE THIS WEBSITE! iT IS MY FIRST TIME VIEWING. GREAT JOB! cprendergast41@yahoo.com 6/16/2011 12:10:38 PM |
