Rodgers927 transcribes the will and estate inventory (totalling £560) of Thomas Blanchard as well as a collection of court documents relating to the extended controversy over the estate’s settlement between Thomas’ widow Mary and his son George.

The early Blanchard generations are complex and merit further study; there may be errors in some of the major sources (such as Wyman and Savage).

See NEHGR 32: 407-411 (1878) for a transcript of legal documents pertaining to Agnes (Bent-Barnes) Blanchard, her death at sea, and her complex family relations.
