Hi,
I am a third great grandson of the William Chamness you mentioned, through his son
Joshua H. Chamness. William was the son of Joshua and Rachel (Williams) Chamness and the
grandson of Anthony and Sarah (Cole) Chamness who were the founders of the Chamness family
in the US. There is a Chamness family web-site at
http://southern-illinois-ancestors.net/uscham.htm Under Family Files #5 there are
sketches that I wrote about these families and in Family File #1 is the family tree as it
is known today. There are a couple of biographical sketches of Isaac and Mary (Millman)
Chamness in books on Green County, Wisconsin. I can e-mail these to you if you like. I
would love to see copies of the Bible records you mentioned and would like to know more
about how your wife is descended from William. I look foward to corresponding with you.
Your Cousin,
David W. Chamness
