Stacie, Pleasant Murphy Chadwell and Elizabeth Brown Chadwell had a son named Pleasant
Millard "P.M." Chadwell. "Millard", as he came to be known in the
later census tables of Kentucky, married Nancy Jane Smith in 1897 in Knox County, KY. In
Millard's wedding records, he also listed his parents as Pleasant Murphy Chadwell and
Elizabeth "Betsy" Brown Chadwell. Jerry Gregory, the author of "Touching
the Past", also has William Chadwell listed as Pleasant Murphy's father. Early
Claiborne County, TN and Lee County, VA census tables show them in close proximity to each
other. David Chadwell, William's father, may have had a will. I suspect there may be
deeds that connect William Chadwell (1779-1859) and Pleasant Murphy Chadwell (1820-d.
early 1860's), believed to be his son.
