5Arthur and Anna Blanchard's HeadstoneArthur and Anna Blanchard's Headstone
Arthur was born in Antrim, New Hampshire, son of William Blanchard and Angenette (Nettie) Stacy Blanchard. He is buried at Riverside Cemetery in Payette, Idaho.

Anna was born in Varmland, Sweden, daughter of Nils Johan Persson and Sofia Jansdotter. She is buried next to Arthur, but the date was never completed on her side of the stone.

This picture was taken by a very nice lady in Idaho named Patty. She was a lookup volunteer listed on the Payette County pages. She not only did a simple lookup to find where and when my great-grandfather was buried, she also got me a copy of his obituary and took this picture of his stone for me.

The first letter looks like an "I" now, but I believe it must have been a "J" originally. John was often written as "Jno"

This wide view shows three fieldstones flush to the ground lined up with the plaque. This suggests the fieldstones might be the original grave markers from the 1600's but this interpretation is open to question.
