Hi.. Can anyone help me ?
I know nothing at all about my grandparents but know more about my great
grandparents but what I do know I will tell you and possibly someone can
help.
My Mothers name is Marvolene Lucille Chambers she was born in Michigan
Aug. 8 1929 or 1930 but her father Omar Chambers was from Ohio He
married Clara Reynolds and had Gerald Chambers as well as my Mother. She
had been married before and can not for the life of me remember what her
1 St. husbands name was. this is what I know so far....Somewhere in or
near Wayne Ohio.
John Chambers married Grace Elwood or Alwood they were buried at the
Rising Sun Cemetery in Ohio. They lived in the old Farm on Reynolds Rd
down by Rising Sun in Ohio. I think this is Wood County Ohio. I think
she was born in 1881 and they married in 1895 give or take a year. She
was 14 when she married and had her first son at the age of 15. I am
very sure about Herman Lester's Birth date and year because I am on the
phone with his daughter ( my Mom's cousin) John was older then Grace but
I don't know how many years and I could find out if I pulled some teeth.
They had 6 boys who lived to adulthood and this is the order of their birth:
Herman Lester Chambers ( nick name was Lester) born Sept 21 1896 in ohio
Gloster Chambers born 11 months later ( aug in 1897 ?)
Omar Chambers ( sounds like Omer)
Lyal ( sounds like lyle)
Vern
Dale
Lester moved to Michigan and lived in Detroit as well as Livonia and
died in Michigan
Gloster stayed in Ohio and stayed in the old Elwood farm on Reynolds Rd
down by Rising sun
Omar lived in Michigan for a time then moved back to Ohio dying in Ohio
Lyal moved to and died in Mansfield Ohio
Vern lived in Ohio and retired in Fla. and died there
Dale moved to Taylor Michigan then retired in Texas and died in Texas
