John and Mary Blanchard, Montreal, early 1800s
Looking for confirmation of a John Blanchard, married to Mary, who may have lived in Montreal 1800-1850. Ggg grandfather Charles W. Blanchard stated on his marriage license that he was born in Montreal. His son, Charles Jr., was born in Norfolk, VA in 1860. Dad said Charles Sr. came to Norfolk to work in the shipyards via Rochester NY. I don't know how long he stayed there. His marriage license has mysteriously disappeared from the archives.
