I have more information about this family and hope that perhaps the
names will be familiar to someone.
Truman Bibbins Chaffee b 19 June 1804 m Grace Hyde in 1827 in Trumbull
County, OH. Their children, all born in OH:
1. Sidney Alvares Chaffee b 2 Aug 1830 in Bristol, Trumbull Co.
2. Louisa Chaffee b abt 1835
3. Sherburne Howard Chaffee b 15 July 1837 in Bristol.
4. Nelson Chaffee b 16 Sept 1839 in Bristol.
5. Adna Romanza Chaffee b 14 Apr 1842 in Orwell, Ashatabula Co.
6. Truman Everel Chaffee b 12 June 1844 in Orwell.
7. George W. Chaffee b abt 1847.
8. Alman/Almond Chaffee b 28 Nov 1848 in Orwell.
I am still trying to place Luther Chaffee who lived in Crawford/Wyandot
County (Wyandot formed from Crawford) early in the 1800s. His daughter
Harriet Matilda Chaffee was born in McCutchenville, Wyandot Co. in 1813.
Luther was supposed to have been a cousin to Truman & Grace Chaffee's
children, but I can't find the connection.
