Hi All Chamberlain/Chamberlin Researchers ~
Has anyone every figured out who the wife of Clement Chamberlain was? I have
found it listed in the LDS and other sources as only Mary Unknown. Might it
have been Mary Allerton or Atherton? I found a small reference today of
William, son of Clement who married Abigail Hatch. In the Reference(below)
it says their daughter Rebecca Chamberlain married Achibald Montgomery
Allerton Dec 3, 1803. Rebecca Chamberlain was b. @ Amenia , NY Feb 8th,
1783. It says she was also a descendant of Isaac Allerton of the Mayflower,
through his daughter, Mary who married Thomas Cushman. Might the Mary
Unknown married to Clement have been the Mary (Allerton) , widow of Thomas
Cushman and she married (2)to Clement Chamberlain?.
I am pretty certain my Chamberlains descend from Joseph Chamberlain and Mary
Johnson of Amenia. My ggg grandfather was named James Atherton Chamberlain,
might have the middle name been mis-pronounced all these years , as I have
never found any Atherton's married anywhere to a Chamberlain.Might his
middle name be Allerton? I did find a John Allerton listed somewhere also at
one time in NY.
Has this already been discovered or has anyone else connected Clement's
wife?More than likely he may have been married twice.
I am member of DAR and have already discovered I descend from Richard
Warren through my Bartlett line, this would be a double bonus if I
discovered my Chamberlain line was the one related to this Allerton line
that also connected back to the Mayflower!
The time frames do look workable also so it may be possible since Thomas
Cushman d. 1691, and Mary in 1699, which is also the same year Clement
Chamberlain died. I have Clement being from Billerica, and Mary dying in
Plymouth, which is a measurable distance. But is this possible with the
resource mentioned below, that Clement Chamberlain married Mary Allerton? I
saw another source as Mary Pease yet the dates seemed very unlikely since
they listed Mary Pease's birthdate as 1753, yet it lists their marriage as
1692 by the researcher..
Just wondering if this has been explored?
Thank you
