Hello, I have a Chambers Lineage. My grandmothers name was Grace Chambers, her siblings
were Walter, William,Mathew,Robert,Jeannie, Jane,Margaret and Martha. Their Parents were
William (born Scotland 1843 & Margaret(Potter)born England) Williams Parents were Hugh
born in Scotland 1808 & Mary born Ireland. I believe something happened to Graces
Mom and Dad and the kids ended up in Orphanges. I found Grace at the age of 17 in 1900
with William(her brother) living in Territory 7, Choctaw Indian Reservation. (My
grandmother told my Aunt that she lived in a convent because her mother had passed away.
I believe Margaret came to the US, but I have no idea what happened to the rest of her
siblings... Oh I think Robert died in a terrible Coal Mine accident. I did find that there
were a couple of Indian Chefs with the name Chef Chambers. I have tried to find records
from Scotland, Ireland and England but I am stuck...... This was a big family someone must
have some information! I would appreciate any help! One more important piece the
Chambers lived in Northumberland, England prior to coming to the
United States. My Grandmother Grace said she lived in Kittybrewster?!
