My interest is in James Chambers (my 4th g-father) b. abt 1770 probably NC or TN. James
married Elizabeth Jackson Daugherty. Whether Canada and James are related...ukn.
Information from Mahala (Atchley) Long affidavit in 25 Aug 1893 (Boone Co AR), she states
John Chambers was Cherokee, and he was Uncle to her and brother to Martha Chambers.
