I am looking for a Robert Blanchard of the Gates (Chowan)Co., NC area (probably early to mid/late 1700's). I know he had one daughter named Rachel. Rachel was living during the time frame of ca. 1760 to 1820. Rachel married George Lassiter of Gates Co. on 7/16/1794. They had the following children: Elvey, Josiah, Mildred, Amilin, and Blanchard. If anyone recognizes these Blanchards, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you.
