Ms. Chance
Thank you so much for this information. Is Hilda Chance's book still available
anywhere? My family is from Emanuel County, GA. Unfortunately we can only get back to a
John M. Chance in the mid 1800s. Family legend has it that he got into some trouble with
the law, left his family and went to South Carolina. Anything before him is a mystery. My
father, grandfather and ggrandfather are all named Arthur Willie Chance. One note on my
grandfather, he was originally named Willie Arthur Chance. My ggrandmother is Pinkie
Durden (or Cordia Lessie Durden). My grandmother is Gladys LaNell Riner.
Can you get us any further back than John M. Chance? Thank you,
Stephanie
