THEORY
- Possible lineage or relations of ASAHEL BLANCHARD 2nd
of VT & NY.
- Note that this file contains individuals who hypothetically
could belong among the desc. in the TG line & some or all of whom
are related to each other. Numerous assumptions are made based
on places of residence & association with other Blanchard's [all
for the consideration of other researchers who may be working on
any one of these families].
- *******************
- The following two men may be brothers or cousins:
- ASAHEL, b c1779 [see below]
- DANIEL, [c1784/87-1853] [See Appendix 4A]
Wife/wives: Ruth/Clarissa[?]
Children incl. Darius, Diantha, Clarissa, Daniel & others;
-son [d bef 1840?] leaving child Ira & [?widow Sally?]
1810: May be in Jamaica [loc. next to Townshend]
c1812: in Townshend, Windh., VT for b of son Darius
c1813: in Richmond, Chitt., VT for b of dau Diantha
[?]1820: a Daniel in Huntington, Chitt., VT [fam does not quite
"fit" the man in Starksboro 1830. [Huntington loc between
Richmond & Starksboro]
c1821: res. New Haven [b of son Daniel]
1830-->: Listed in Starksborough
Note: Various Daniel's who are probably in the TG line:
-Daniel [c1756-1806] TG1-442; son of Benj.
May have been in Townshend 1780-1789]
-Daniel [b after 1780- ]; may have been in Hinsdale, NH 1800
[see Appendix 2].
- Assumption that Asahel & Daniel are related & belong among the
desc. of George based partly on the presence
- in New Haven, Addison, VT of
. Asahel [1732-1816] [TG3-71]; res from c1787
. Asahel "2nd" [c1770/80- ]; res 1810-1830
. Daniel [c1784/87-1853]; res c1820/21 [birth of a son]
. Olive & Sarah married there in 1834
- in Starksborough, Addison, VT of
. Daniel [c1784/87-1853]; res by 1830-->
. Olive (Blanchard) Abbott d there 1836 [presumed dau of Asahel]
. John Nelson [c1813-1898], presumed son of Asahel "2nd", res
there by 1840; in 1850 Daniel's dau Clarissa listed with him.
. John N.'s dau Clarinda [c1833/34- ] m1 to Ira Blanchard, a
grandson of Daniel.
. Roxanna (Blanchard) Percival res there 1840
- Note: It is not unknown but highly unusual for unrelated
Blanchard's to be closely associated..
- Another set of assumptioms: that the
- Asahel 2nd [1770/80- ] of New Haven, VT is the Asahel [c1779- ]
listed with his son Charles in 1850 Saratoga Co., NY.
- That some of the various misc. persons in rec. of New Haven &
Starksborough, VT as well as in Saratoga, NY are children of
Asahel "2nd" [all of whom almost fit into his census households].
- Re possible ident. of the father of either/or Asahel & Daniel:
- ABNER [1737-c1820] [TG3-73], father of John R.
Known to have been in CT, MA, VT, NY, PA; had 3 unident. sons
b before 1790. Note: In 1880 Roxanna, presumed dau of Asahel,
gives her father's birthplace as "PA" [?residual family tradition?]
- JOHN R. [1758- ] & wife Ada [see TG3-731], son of Abner
Known to have been in MA, NY & VT; had at least 1 son by 1790
[probably others & poss. 3 sons, 1790/1800].
John R. is a nephew of the early ASAHEL [d 1818] of New Haven,
Add., VT. [see TG3-71]
