I may have posted this before, if so I apologize.
I am looking for the parents of James H. Chambers b. 3/11/1843. d. 9/6/1919 in
Joelton. TN. He is my ggrandfather and died from injuries when he fell from a
barn roof. He was married to to Sarah Jane Earheart b. 2/28/1844 d. 7/25/1935.
Their children were Ellen, Olivia and Kate, Rodney (Gilbert), Lee and William.
Their children (my granmother and great uncles) told stories about their
grandfather or greatgrandfather rafting down the Ohio (and or Cumberland)
River into middle Tennessee. However, I have never been sure if they were
talking about the Chambers family rafting or if they were referring to the
Earheart family.
His obituary lists him as a Chambers and then changes to Chambliss, a problem
I have with other documents as well. He is buried in the Forest Grove Cemetery
in Joelton (Nashville), TN.
Othert Chambers/Chambliss's buried in the Forest Grove Cemetery are:
John b. 3/10/1849 d. 5/16/1900
Mary M. Earheart Chambliss b. 9/29/1856 d. 2/1/1987
Effie, b. 8/26/1892 d. 12/1/1906
James R. b. 7/24/1872, d. 10/9/1956
Mary Daris Chambliss b. 2/19/1937 d. 7/2/1937
Hallie b. 6/4/1909 d. 11/3/1910
I hope this helps and that someone may have some additional info. Thanks
