A kind person posted this on the Chamblee bulletin board.
I'm actually unsure who this might be, but it could be the son of William R.
Chamblee born ca 1840 who marr Mary Mildred Simmons. I "THINK" they moved to
Gwinnett Co GA. Here's a census that "could" be them:
1870, Gwinnett Co GA, Lawrenceville PO
William R or B Chamblee, 30 farmer 500/700 b. GA
Mary 25 keeping house b. GA
Julia 4 [definitely says Julia]
James 3
1880
Census Place: Sugar Hill, Gwinnett, Georgia

W. R. d. 1899 Gainesville GA marker needs repair

As I searched for my family in the Alta Vista Cemetery,(also known as the
city cemetery)in Gainesville, Hall County, GA, earlier today I saw a very
ornate grave marker that needed repair. Inscribed: W.R. Chamblee, Oct 30
1861, Mar 27 1899, Graduated at the N.G.A College 1890, Admitted to the Bar
1896, 2nd Lieut 2nd GA VOL US INF 1898. This was a very expensive marker in a
large sectioned area which appears to have fallen into disrepair. I am
gussing that a very strong wind toppled the 7', or taller, marble carving,
which lies in two pieces nearby on the ground, and a smaller piece is about
5' away inside another marked off area. Should there be any family left I
know they would like to see this repaired. This is NOT my line but wanted to
pass this along to those interested as a courtsey. May God bless your family,
Sandy Reid
