Biography
'Jean Blanchard, the actual progenitor of the Blanchards of Acadia, was one of the earliest settlers in the colony. When he was 31 years old, he married 21-year-old Radegonde Lambert at Port-Royal in c1642, so he may have reached the colony in the late 1630s. Jean and Radegonde had six children, including two sons who created their own families. Their daughters married into the Gaudet, Guérin, and Richard dit Sansoucy families.'
