New to the list and wondering if my earlier post regarding a Wilson-Chalmers/Chambers
connection reached the list. My g-aunt, Manerva Wilson, was the d/o William Wilson, born
ca 1800 SC. She was born ca 1847 GA. The William Wilson family is living in Amunchee,
Walker Co GA for the 1850 census. Manerva and the William Wilson family is in Lebanon,
DeKalb Co AL for the 1860 census.
By 1870, Manerva Wilson is married to a David Wendrix/Windrix/Wendrich living in Jackson
Co AL. On the 1870 Jackson Co AL census, William Wilson is living in their home. He is
shown as being b ca 1801 SC. I believe this to be Manerva's father. Also in the home
is a Josephine Chalmers or Chambers, age 10, born AL. The surname is exceptionally faint.
I know of no connection of my Wilson line to the Chalmers/Chambers family and I have no
idea who she might be. Wondering if anyone has a Josephine that might connect to either my
Wilsons or a Wendrix/Windrix/Wendrich family. David Windrix/Wendrix was believed to
be originally from PA.
Thanks for any help.
