"Title: Book "Blanchards of Rhode Island" Author: Adelaide Crandall Publication: Pub. 1942
"Note: Copy purchased from Higginson Book Co, Salem, MA, in 1999. Genealogy appears to have been carefully researched and well-documented, even though Rhode Island vital records were carelessly made and kept. The author cites land and vital records in Foster and Wakefield, RI; Clarendon, VT; Uxbridge, MA; Conn; and in NY, as well as genealogies by Dr. William Deloss Love, an eminent Hartford historian and genealogist who was a descendant of Moses Blanchard (#4 in Crandall genealogy), and others. The book seems to avoid unfounded speculation, and the author explains her reasoning with the reader when she does speculate, as in the Foreword.

Blanchard -- This Breton name first appeared in England in Lancashire, and before that in Normandy, France

Some have tried, without success, to tie in the line with that of Thomas Blanchard (1600-1654) of Boston. This Thomas was a Huguenot, born probably in the Duchy of Lorraine (then Holy Roman Empire; now France), then lived for a short while in England before coming to Boston. He is not related to us. Rather, the DNA evidence (below) points to the Blanchards of Howden and Bubwith, formerly in East Riding, Yorkshire, and vicinity. I am in the process of trying to sketch out a hypothetical tree.

Ysearch has provided us with the yDNA pattern of ancestor (528) William Blanchard Sr., c/o a male descendant. The first 25 markers are as follows:

[LAST REVISED 19 Nov. 2008]

Haplogroup	DYS 393	DYS 390	DYS 19/ 394	DYS 391	DYS 385a	DYS 385b	DYS 426	DYS 388	DYS 439	DYS 389-1	DYS 392	DYS 389-2	DYS 458	DYS 459a	DYS 459b	DYS 455	DYS 454	DYS 447	DYS 437	DYS 448	DYS 449	DYS 464a	DYS 464b	DYS 464c	DYS 464d
#5TGVZ William Blanchard b. ABT 1669 of Scituate, RI
R1b1	12	25	14	10	12	15	11	12	13	13	13	29	16	9	10	11	11	25	15	20	33	15	15	16	16

The Blanchard Family DNA Project links William's DNA (samples #6607, 20319 and 89847) genetically with samples #11906, 12060, 12936, 36000, twuyb, n8cp9 and 8yqu5. Collectively, these form "Group 7" of the study. Besides our William, Group 7 includes:

11906 William Blanchard b. ABT 1720 CT? d. 1795 CT
12060 Michael Blanchard b. 1786 Ont. d. 1873 IN
12936 Rufus G. Blanchard b. 1826 NY/VT d. 1901 NY
36000 William Blanchard b. ABT 1830 VT
twuyb Thomas Blanchard b. ABT 1752 Northumb. d. ABT 1820
n8cp9 William Blanchard b. ABT 1768 Yorkshire d. 1844
8yqu5 John Blanchard b. ABT 1770 Yorkshire

The haplogroup R1b (of which R1b1 is a subset) is found on the Atlantic seaboard of SW Europe, where it is found in frequencies greater than 80% -- consistent with its having been the predominant yDNA group of the original settlers of the area, akin to the modern-day Basque speakers in the western Pyrenes.

"The propagation of (the marriage of of Peleg Rhodes and Alice Edmunds) on the internet is recent, and one I have not seen before. The family... was the subject of some work many years ago by the former genealogist for the SAR, but with no conclusion. Same for me, my work published in the NEHGS Register. The minor child Alice Edmunds doesn't seem to appear in her father's will. However, a later probate or property settlement involving a guardian could then mention her as the wife of Peleg Rhodes, or at least connect her to the Edmunds family..."
