yHi You Guys,
For nearly a decade, I have been trying to unravel my Chambers puzzle. So,
last night I sat down with my books and copied down my lines and the Chambers
connectors. I am hoping that one of you might know how to help me out. My
lines are in caps along with the connecting Chambers names:
THE MADARIS/MEDARIS/MCDARIS family.
GENERATION ONE
RICE MEDARIS married RACHEL MCPHEETERS. They were married June 1775.
GENERATION TWO
WILLIAM H. married SUSANNAH NICHOLSON
brother James A. married Patricia Buckner and they lived in Union County,
Georgia in an area called Young Cane/Blairsville.
GENERATION THREE
JAMES HIRAM married ELIZABETH BOONE
child of James A. was Robert H. who married MARY POLLY CHAMBERS
GENERATION FOUR
VIRGINIA married JAMES MURPHY (this was a surname that was originally
Morphew)
child of James A. was William B. born 1856 who married CORDELIA CHAMBERS
THE BOONE FAMILY
GENERATION ONE
ISRAEL BOONE married unknown. He was the elder brother of the pioneer
Daniel.
GENERATION TWO
JESSE BOONE married MCMAHON
GENERATION THREE
ISRAEL BOONE married ELIZABETH MOORE
GENERATION FOUR
ELIZABETH (BETSY) married JAMES HIRAM MEDARIS in McMinn, Tennessee
GENERATION FIVE
VIRGINIA married JAMES MURPHY. She was born in 1855.
THE MOORE FAMILY
GENERATION ONE
JESSE MOORE married ALLEY JOHNSON
GENERATION TWO
DANIEL MOORE married RACHEL STONE
RACHEL MOORE married CHAMBERS, either Elisha or Elijah
REBECCA MOORE married CHAMBERS either Elisha or Elijah
GENERATION THREE
ELIZABETH MOORE married JAMES HIRAM MEDARIS
MY CHAMBERS LINE
GENERATION ONE
JACOB Married NANCY A. They lived in Cherokee and Lumpkin, Georgia
GENERATION TWO
JACOB JR. married ELIZABETH STACY. They lived in Wright County, Missouri
GENERATION THREE
ANDREW JACKSON CHAMBERS married MARY ELLEN BAKER in north Arkansas but they
raised their children around St. Louis.
GENERATION FOUR
MERICA CHAMBERS married JOHN MURPHY. She was born in 1900.
These families lived in Burke, North Carolina.... Daisy/McMinn and Bradley
Tennessee... Chickamauga/Union/Lumpkin/Cherokee Georgia... Monroe, Indiana and
Kentucky.
I don't have my Morphew line established yet until we get my brother's DNA
results back but it also has Boone and Chambers connections in it.
A Chambers researcher in Wright County says that we descend from Elijah
Chambers. Also, one other bit, in 1840 there were 3 Chambers in Pulaski
County, Missouri which became a part of Wright County... I believe them to be
brothers: John, James and Jacob. I believe that Jacob travelled between
Georgia and Missouri and that John and his wife were killed in a tornado in
Wright County and that their children: George, Elizabeth, William Singleton
Chambers and another Jacob were orphanned into different homes there. One
other daughter of John's was unaccounted for.
Any help out there for me?
Thanks,
Polly
Oops. In Wright County, there was another Andrew Jackson Chambers born the
same time as mine. He married Nancy Byrd Simmons.
