Hello List, I am seeking contact with anyone descended from RICHARD BLANCHARD and ELIZABETH COLLYNS PRIDHAM. The only information I have of these two is that Elizabeth was born 01 August 1799, Topsham, Devon. England and they were married at that venue on 01 August 1822 and that Richard was a Solicitor, practicing I think, in London. Their known children were... Richard Edward BLANCHARD (B) 13 Nov 1823 Topsham, Devon, England Not known if married or to whom.. Henry Pridham BLANCHARD (B) 21 Oct 1829 Winchester, Southampton, England, (D) 19 Jun 1885 Fairfield Terrace, Worcester, Sth East, Christchurch, New Zealand (M) Caroline SHALDERS 10 Oct 1858 Christchurch, New Zealand. I have nearly all of this line. Elizabeth Sophia BLANCHARD (B) 25 Jun 1834 South Stoneham, Hampshire, England. Margaret Lucy BLANCHARD (B) 07 Jul 1836 South Stoneham, Hampshire, England. William Gilbert BLANCHARD (B) 17 Jan 1838 All Saint's, Southampton, Hampshire, England (D) 20 Feb 1876 in Auckland New Zealand. Does any of this lineage appear in anyone's tree? If so please email me. Incidentally I have quite a lot of info on the COLLYNS and PRIDHAM lineages if I can be of assistance to anyone else. -- Kind Regards and Thank You Wayne JOHNSON : NZ GOONS # 3232 : "SHALDERS & Variants Worldwide" My Homepages : http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/j/o/h/Wayne-Johnson/index.html : http://www.myfamily.com/home/home.asp
