Folks, I have just about completed the needed names for my cousins marriage
and taking on the name Chambless. I have found that Jesse Royce (AKA
Chambliss) Chambless used both spellings of his surname. His father Davis
Royce (AKA Chambless) Chambliss did the same. Bye the Bye in case anyone is
interested. Davis Royce takes the name of his mother's surname Laura
Ophelia Davis. I have looked at several trees and found that some have used
the name of David instead of Davis. As of now I am looking for Jesse Royce
and Katherine (AKA Catherine) (Davis) (AKA Chambliss) Chambless's one child
who survived infancy of the two born to them. Martha Ann Chambliss was born
on 9 January 1938 her parents were married in February 1937. Martha Ann
married a Mr. Sherwood son of L. C. Sherwood. They lived for a period of
time in Salem, Marion County, Oregon. Martha Ann (Chambliss) Sherwood would
now be 71 years old if she is still living. Assuming that she remained
married to Mr. Sherwood.
Here is an obit that was published this morning.
