Hello Fletch and everyone else on BLANCHARD-L! My name is Jim Blanchard from New Brunswick Canada, and I've been sitting quietly on the side of this list for some time now. I agree with Martha in Calgary, that there are not enough people doing research on the Acadian branch of the Blanchard family. So I decided to get my feet wet by creating a website. Please drop by for a visit. The address is http://genweb.net/~blanchard My page doesn't have a counter, or guestbook, so I have no idea who, or how many people visit unless you send me an email. If you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know. Many thanks to Martha Blanchard, George Blanchard and John Chandler for their help so far.
