Thomas Blanchard
- Born: 1844, Linwood, Lincs.
 Notes:
1851 Census (age 9) living in Legsby, Lincs with parents and siblings. Scholar. Also living in house are 2 x cousins Amos (13, labourer) and Thomas (age 4 perhaps) Crawshaw.
1861 Census; There is a Thomas Blanchard (19) in Royal Marines, based at Chatham Barracks, Kent. But this person says born in Horncastle - and he also exists separately to our Thomas on the '51 census ... eventually ; OUR Thomas is 17 and living as servant in North Willingham at the home of a(nother) Thomas Blanchard (42, farm baliff of 320 acres). Occupation is given but hard to read ... maybe Carter ? This is his Uncle.
Possibly he is the Thomas Blanchard who died in Caistor in Q4 1865, but no age at death given (ancestry).
1871 Census; Can't find. Again there is one born in Horncastle - presumably same as above.
1881 Census; Can't find. Again there is one born in Horncastle - presumably same as above.
