2. | Blanchard, William was born about 1765 in Dorchestshire, Dorset, England (son of Blanchard, William Joseph); died on 24 Aug 1850 in Unknown Location. Notes:
The BLANCHARD's of Parson's Pond and Bonne Bay are descendants of William BLANCHARD of the Bay of Islands. William, however, was orignally from Dorsetshire, England. Papers of Governor Duckworth record William BLANCH ARD living on the Humber River in 1810: a "cod and salmon fisherman, selling fish to St. John's." It is not known how many children William had, but their were at least 5, including 2 sons William Jr. and Thomas. Hi s grandson another Thomas (1845 - 1929) may have been the son of William or Thomas. J. B. Jukes, an American mentions the BLANCHARD's during a voyage to the Bay of Islands on August 20, 1839: "We visited one family about half way down the [Humber] sound .... Their name was BLANCHARD, and the old man had lived here about sixty years, having settled there before the breaking out of the American War. He had several sons that were getting mar ried and beginning to settle about him. His house, though small, was neat and comfortable, and he had two or three small fields under cultivation. They were just getting in the hay from one small meadow, andit appeared of good p> quality. They had very good currants, raspberries, and gooseberries growing in the garden edges." Bishop Feild also spoke of William BLANCHARD during a visit to Gilliam's Cove, Bay of Islands in 1849: "The house is m ean and dirty, and the old patriarch, who has lived here nearly seventy years, was in a state of great filth and discomfort. He is nearly ninety years of age. His mental faculties are good, but his bodily strength is nearly gone . He welcomed us kindly, spoke with pleasure of Archdeacon Wix .... This is, I believe, the second time only in nearly 70 years that he has seen a clergyman..." [CI:136:?2:CI]
