Talk:Blanche McManus

Untitled
I am related to Blanche McManus through my father. She was his great-aunt and he remembers her coming to visit in Lake Charles, Louisiana, when he was growing up. I have researched the rest of her family and have identified her father, mother and siblings. I am attempting to gather more information about her early life to add to this page.Ken (talk) 18:05, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Questionable birth and death dates
I'm questioning the birth and death dates listed here for Blanche. The source given is a webpage with birth and death information but in another search I found a genealogy page on familytreemaker.com lists her birth as February 2, 1864 and death as June 20, 1935. This information looks more legitimate and precise (based on sources listed from newspaper articles from 1915 and a book Who's Who in America 1922-23 pg. 2132) than the webpage provided. This would also shift her birth into the 1860s category from the 1870s one it's currently in. Bil Simser (talk) 16:27, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
