I have been looking for a Stephen Shambert Chambers born in NJ. Your
Daniel had a
brother Stephen who would have been about the right age to have been the
father of
the William, Sr. on my Chambers family line. Do you have additional
information on
Stephen, the brother of Daniel? Names that occur in both family lines
include
William, George, Sarah, Nancy.
My William, Sr., is said to have left home from the Trenton area rather
young and
went to live with an uncle as he and his father had difficulty getting
along.
Willim later worked on the construction of the National Road in western
PA. While
doing this he meet the Miller family. He and Jane Miller married abt.
1831 and
lived in southern Ohio. After her death, William married again and
several years
later (mid 1850's) moved to Wisconsin. My great-grandfather, John
Chambers
remained in Ohio. John, his son, John Wesley, and my father William
(Phillip
William Otterbein Chambers) were all ministers.
What does the S. stand for in your John S. Chambers?
Thanks, Mary Catharine Chambers Crittenden
