I show that Joel Chamness was born 3-10-1800 to Joseph & Ruth McCracken
Davis. They were married 11-21-1793 & this was recorded at Spring Meeting,
Orange Co., NC. Joseph Chamness was the son of Joseph & Margaret Norton Chamness.
Ruth was the daughter of Alexander and Abigail McCracken. Joseph & Ruth
moved to Washington, Daviess Co., IN in 1811
My info comes from The Chamness Family in America written in 1922 by Zimri
Hanson and revised in 1996 by Agnes Hussey Stevens. If you would like further
info on this family, please feel free to contact me, another Chamness-Davis
whose ancestors found their way to Indiana in early 1820s.
