If you're upgrading your
Ancestry.com account to full, I must caution you in your
research of the Chambers surname, and our line of Chambers - Charles Hamilton Chambers and
father Moses Chambers.
There is a lot of BAD research regarding the parents of Moses Chambers. Some have the
parents of Moses listed as Abner and Jemima Chambers. THIS IS NOT CORRECT. There is no
proven or documented relationship with this line of Chambers.
In the 1880 US Federal Census, Blount County, TN Charles Hamilton Chambers listed his
father and mother as being born in Tennessee. That is all we know at this time.
But once again, I must caution you to not presume others at
Ancestry.com have done their
research. It only takes one person to incorrectly connect two generations of people, and
then everyone else also has the same incorrect data.
My advice regarding the parents of Moses Chambers is ... find the evidence
(documentation).
