In 1900 Blanche would have been 7. I don't know anything about Tommy except that he is supposed to have died while living in theorphanage. I have no idea of his age. These three children were supposed to have been brought from MI to OH by their father and left with his sister Carrie Conyers.....but she was an only child so could not have been his sister and there were no other children living in her home. I could not find Tommy listed in a death index. Blanche was supposed to have been adopted so I'll post for that. Her adoptive parents were Merton and Ella Peck. They lived in Brighton, OH. I don't know how old she was a the time. Thanks for any help.
