PIONEER LADY PASSES AWAY 



Mrs. Calvin Blanchard is called to her last rest at the age of 79 years and 14 
days. 



Louisa Granby Blanchard was born in Stockholm, St. Lawrence County, New York, 
August 11, 1834, and died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. C. D. Crane, at the 
age of 79 years and 14 days. In Stockholm, among old puritanical people, she 
grew to womanhood and at the age of 17 years, married Ramon Page. To this union 
were born two children, a boy and a girl. The boy grew to manhood and died 
several years ago. The daughter is now Mrs. C. D. Crane. Mr. Page died in 1855 
after spending a short time with his family in Ohio. Mrs. Page then returned to 
New York with her two children and in 1859 she married Calvin Blanchard. They 
came to Iowa in 1866 and have lived in this vicinity ever since. 



Mrs. Blanchard was a noble, grand woman of sterling worth and had a heart of 
gold. "To know her was to love her."
