I am using the info on the 1870 Jackson Co AL census which shows her born in AL. I know
these records aren't always correct but since she is on this 1870 Jackson Co AL
census, I don't believe it could be the same Josephine that I seek that is in IN or NY
on other 1870 census records.
There is a great deal of controversy that her name was really Chambers. The census record
shows her name with an incomplete spelling and some guesses have been that her surname
might have been Chamler, Chumler, Channler, etc. So I'm starting with Chambers and
will work toward the rest if I find that her name wasn't Chambers after all.
