Notes - The largest group of Blanchards who found refuge in Louisiana came from France at the behest of the Spanish government aboard four of the Seven Ships of 1785. They chose to go to upper Bayou Lafourche and settle in the district their kinsman had once commanded:
Anne-Symphorose Hébert, age 47, widow of Joseph Blanchard, came to Louisiana aboard La Bergère, the second of the Seven Ships, which reached New Orleans in August. With her were six children, all born in France--Laurent-Olivier, age 19, Marie-Madeleine, age 17, Pierre-Joseph, age 15, Louis-Suliac, age 13, Élie, age 11, and Anne, age 7. Anne-Symphorose never remarried and died at Lafourche in September 1793, age 54. Her daughters married into the Bourg, Comeaux, and Trahan families. Three of her four sons created families of their own along the bayou, but only two of the lines endured.
