BLANCH/E FAMILIES OF RUTHERGLEN AND CHILTERN, VICTORIA

[morriemoo]

Wondering if anyone has any information on families who lived in Rutherglen or Chiltern, Victoria around 1900 with surname BLANCH OR BLANCHE.  In particular John and his wife Margaret and also Peter Michael Blanch who was a baker there for some years.

Thank you
