Hello all!
I am trying to find my family, but am having problems. I try doing multiple searches on
Ancestry using all kinds of spellings, but still I find nothing. Here is my line:
My g-grandfather was William Anderson Chambers. According to stories, his father was John
Wesley and his mother was Rebecca J. Unknown (1844-ABT 1925). Rebecca, in 1880, married
William Roberson/Robertson/Robinson. In 1910 she lists 4 children born, only 3 living. I
know 2 for sure- William Anderson Chambers (1864-1933) and Cora Elizabeth
"Betty" Chambers (1869-196x). These two married siblings- Geroge Adcock and
Nancy Jane Adcock. The Adcocks changed their names to Adds later on. The siblings that
married siblings all moved to Texas. (Ellis and Dallas County) If this sounds like ANY
part of your family, please contact me. They truly are a mystery!
Another note....I was told that the name was Chamberlain and changed to Chambers due to
illegal activity. I think this is fantasy, but the name change might be true.
Thanks!
