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

The electoral roll listing for Peter and Ellen living at Rutherglen is a good example of a listing at an address is no guarantee that the person is living there at that time.  Peter and Ellen were living in Collingwood by 1907.

Here is a photo of young ANDREW BLANCH in uniform

http://cas.awm.gov.au/photograph/P06451.002

I'm afraid he was in and out of trouble during the 1920's and in this instance, his brother was an accomplice.

Peter William and Andrew theft in Collingwood

He was arrested as a stowaway  from Fremantle 1924.

Was there something in particular you had hoped to find?

Sometimes quite specific inquiries can be very successfully addressed in the forum.

Sometimes being specific in your search query saves doubling up by the team when they  offer what you already know. ;D
