Alain Blanchard (born 14th century, executed in Rouen in 1419) was a commander of the crossbowmen of Rouen during the Hundred Years' War.

He was active in the defence of the city during its siege by king Henry V of England. His habit of hanging English captives from the walls of the city incurred the wrath of the English. When the city capitulated on 20 January 1419 Henry demanded that three notable inhabitants be surrendered to be decapitated. One of them was Alain Blanchard. (Wikipedia).

Many immigrant Blanchard families in the US claim descent from Alain via Pierre John Blanchard, born 1555 in Normandy.

Are there any sources that show that Alain Blanchard had any children?

Thanks

Another way to cut this line is to point out that there is no primary source, which tells us who Pierre Jean's parent's were, nor in what place he was born. Speculation yes, evidence no.

Brad, can you provide the Edward I descent[s] for George Booth of
Killingholme? And who was the second husband of Elizabeth Monckton?

I agree with Olivier's count of 10 Edward III descents for the 1st
Baron Rancliffe. This individual has some interesting descendants,
including his grandson the British diplomat Sir Horace Rumbold and Sir
Horace's son (another Sir Horace) who was British ambassador to
Germeny at the time Hitler took power in Germany. The Rumbolds are in
Leo's database and have good biographies in ODNB.

This line of descent is tentative, and further research is needed in
Generations 9 & 10 (see below & footnotes).

Edward I had
1) Joan of Acre (1272-1307) m. 1) Gilbert de Clare, 6th Earl of
Gloucester (1243-1295), and had
2) Elizabeth de Clare (1295-1360) m. 2) Theobald, 2nd Lord Verdun
(1278-1316), and had
3) Isabel Verdun (1317-1349) m. Henry Ferrers, 2nd Lord Ferrers of
Groby (1303-1343), and had
4) Elizabeth Ferrers (c.1336-1375) m. 1) David Strabolgi, 12th Earl of
Atholl (1334-1369), and had
5) Elizabeth Strabolgi (1361-1416) m. 2) Sir John le Scrope of
Hollinhall (c.1355-1405), and had
6) Elizabeth Scrope m. 1) Thomas Clarell of Aldwark (c.1402-1450), and
had
7) Elizabeth Clarell (d. 1503) m. Sir Richard Fitzwilliam of Aldwark
(d. 1478), and had
8) Richard Fitzwilliam of Dalton (d. 1521) = ??, and had
9) Elizabeth Fitzwilliam* m. William Gardner of Bishop Norton, and had
10) Cecily Gardner (d. 1590) m. Thomas Booth of Killingholme (d.
1581), and had**
11) John Booth of Killingholme (d. 1598) m. Martha Boteler (d. 1617),
and had
12) George Booth of Killingholme (1582-1617), ancestor of 1st Baron
Rancliffe

> And who was the second husband of Elizabeth Monckton?

Per the HOP bio of Elizabeth's stepson, Sir Matthew Appleyard, her
second husband was John Turner of Barton-on-Humber, Lincolnshire:
http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1660-1690/member/appleyard-sir-matthew-1607-70

But I haven't yet uncovered dates or parents for John Turner.

So does Leo. With my different way of counting, I get 7 separate
lines, but we still match up.

Very interesting!

*Per the Gardner of Bishop Norton pedigree in the 1562-64 Visitation
of Lincolnshire, Elizabeth, wife of William Gardner, was the daughter
of "Rich. Fitzwilliams of Aldwark":
http://archive.org/stream/visitationofcoun00cook#page/n107/mode/2up
Per the 1592 Gardner of Bishop Norton pedigree, Elizabeth was dau of
"Richard Fitz William of Calais, Kt, brother to Sir Thomas":
http://archive.org/stream/visitationofcoun00cook#page/n377/mode/2up
This would be Richard Fitzwilliam, younger son of Sir Richard
Fitzwilliam of Aldwark & Elizabeth Clarell, who, per Joseph Hunter in
his 'South Yorkshire' Vol. 2 (1831), p. 56, "had lands at Dalton, died
10 Mar. 1521, bur. at Thribergh." Many sources since state that this
Richard Fitzwilliam died unmarried, so Elizabeth Fitzwilliam Gardner
may have been an illegitimate daughter. Curiously his elder brother,
Sir Thomas Fitzwilliam of Aldwark (1448-1498), mentions an
illegitimate daughter Elizabeth in his 1497 will:
http://archive.org/stream/testamentaebora05claygoog#page/n257/mode/2up

**Per Rev. Maddison's pedigree of Booth of Killingholme in his
'Lincolnshire Pedigrees' Vol. 1 (1902), Thomas Booth's children were
all from his first wife Elizabeth Ayscough:
http://archive.org/stream/lincolnshirepedi01madd#page/n341/mode/2up
But per the original Booth of Killingholme pedigree from the 1562
Visitation of Lincolnshire, all his children were by his second wife,
Cecily Gardner:

Thanks, Brad, for this further information. As you say, this needs
further research - particularly the Gardner/Booth link.

The 1562-64 visitation pedigree for Booth is certainly contemporaneous
with Thomas Booth of Killingholme (d. 1581) and thus should be
reliable. But it's worrisome that Maddison gives Thomas 4 more
children not listed in the Vis. pedigree - in addition to assigning
all the children to the first wife Elizabeth Ayscough. Something is
amiss here.....

BTW, the HOP bio states that Sir Matthew Appleyard was Elizabeth
Monckton's son. This is incorrect - he was baptized 28 December 1608
at All Saints Church, Burstwick, Yorkshire, the youngest child of
Thomas Appleyard's first wife, Anne Legard. Elizabeth Monckton's first
husband George Booth did not die until 1617.

Yes indeed.

Maybe the additional four children Maddison provides were born after
the 1562-64 Visitation? One of them, daughter Catherine Booth,
Maddison shows as married in 1578, which is cutting it close. But
still possible if she was born right after the Visitation and married
in her teens. If born after the Visitation, this would necessarily
make them the children of Booth's second wife Cecily Gardner, since
Elizabeth Ayscough had died and Booth remarried Cecily by the time the
herald took the Visitation.

It's interesting that there was another Booth/Monckton marriage before
Elizabeth Monckton's to George Booth. Clearly the families were
closely allied.

If the baptismal entry does not
provide a mother's name, than another
solution is that his wife was not this
Elizabeth Monckton.
My sources don't give her a firstname nor
a first husband.
