Hi Blanchard cousins! I am a new subscriber to the Blanchard list. I am just starting to research the ancestors of my gggggg-grandfather Robert Blanchard. I have very little information to start my research. 1. Robert Blanchard i. Rachel Blanchard 2. Rachel Blanchard married George Lassiter i. Elvey Lassiter 3. Elvey Lassiter married Thomas Morgan i. Nelly Morgan, born 1830 4. Nelly Morgan married Josiah Jackson Nichols of Randolph Co., GA on 3/26/1848. i. Elmore Nichols b. 1850 ii. Eli Nichols b. 1851 Nelly married John Merkuson of Randolph Co., GA in the 1850's after JJ Nichols died. i. John Ross Murkuson b. 1856 ii. Elixin Green Murkuson b. 1859 iii. Ella Fair Murkuson b. 1858 I hope someone sees a link and can make a connection. I appreciate hearing from anyone with any information on this BLANCHARD line. Tim Matthews
