Biography

Blanche was born in 1913 in Chippewa, Michigan. She passed away in 1990 and is interred with her husband at Glen Haven Memorial Park and Mausoleum, Winter Park, Orange County, Florida.

Notes

• Blanche's obituary mentions the following people: Thomas W (Son), Nancy S (Daughter), Loren Robinson (Brother), Oren Robinson (Brother), Belva Gifford (Sister).
• Hmm. 1920 census lists Blanche as a stepdaughter of Archey Robinson (b. Canada), but it also shows that her parents were both born in Michigan. So it would seem that Archey isn't her father. Is her birth surname, really Robinson, or did she (and all sibling) take on Archey's name?
