You've brought up some interesting points. I haven't found anything else out
since I posted as I don't do much research in the summer. I live in Alaska and winter
in good time for research on a computer! :) I would definitly like to follow up on this
soon. The days are getting shorter all the time here! Thanks for the input and if I get
some more info I'll update you.

Amos Chaffin, b.1768, was my 4great grandfather.
I was wondering if you have learned anymore information since your post. I'd
certainly be interested if you have.
please e-mail me:
lanechaffin(a)msn.com
john fults feels that the father of Abner and Amos was not Joseph, but rather John
Chaffin, born abt 1747, son of Joshua and Esther Chaffin.
i'm not sure what his proofs were.
the census from 1790 and 1800 Burke NC indicate that there was a Joseph Chaffin (Chafen)
who apparently died bef. 1790 as his widow Mary Chafen appears on the census. Also a
Joseph Chafen, Jr. is listed. It seems likely that this Joseph is the son of this Mary.
It seems less likely that he is brother of Amos, Abner and Elias who are shown on the
census as Chaffin rather than Chafen. So, if this Mary is indeed Mary Moor, perhaps she
was not the mother of Amos, Abner and Elias. this is just speculation.
please let me know what you think.
y.t.,
Lane Chaffin
