I have an original 6"x9" Cabinet Card photograph of "Elton and Doris and
Thelma Chambers", taken about 1906/1907, which I'd like to get back to
descendants or family members. Elton looks about age 4, Doris, age 1 & Thelma about
2-1/2.
I found the family in the 1910 Blandinsville (McDonough Co.) IL census, showing father
Frank Chambers (45), wife Florence (31), Elton (7), Thelma (5) and Doris (3). A posting in
Ancestry Family Tree shows maiden name of mother Florence as Wilson. Another post shows
Doris L. Chambers, born in Blandinsville in 1906, married Carl W. Peterson in Oct 1939,
and that she died Dec 2006 San Antonio, TX, at age 100. She was "preceded by brother
Elton Chambers and sister Thelma Daly". SSDI shows Doris Chambers birth 13 Jun 1906.
In 1930, Elton lived in Sedgwick Co., KS, and SSDI shows birth 19 Jul 1902, and death May
1992 last of Dallas, TX.
Get back to me at margerice(a)prodigy.net if you are related to this Chambers family.
