Louth Blanchards IP: 80.41.155.126 Posted on January 30, 2010 at 09:22:48 PM by Sue Myers
Hi
My grandmother was Gladys May Blanchard, daughter of Albert Blanchard. She was born in Louth in 1898. Information has been passed on to me taking my tree back to John Blanchard, born abt 1785 in North Cave. I'm curious to know why my great-grandfather, Albert, took his family away from Louth to South Africa. A couple of years ago I discovered the horrifying bit of information regarding his brother, Peter, who was hung in Lincoln. Could the stigma have caused him to eventually leave or was there something else? I'd appreciate it if anyone was able to enlighten me in any way.
Many thanks
