I have a Thomas Chance who was born around 1847. Perhaps he had a son named Thomas? I
have no information about who he might have married or where he died, but maybe this could
help you in the right direction with your
search. His parents were David Chance b. 9 March 1812 in
Ohio, Married Mary, who was b. around 1815 in Ohio and
died May 20, 1873, buried in Bear Creek Cemetery. Their
children were William Chance, B. 1837, d. 9/5/1859, Thomas, b. ca 1847, David, b. 1851, d.
6/27/1869, Sarah Ann, b. 1855, Amanda, b. 1861. David Chance did marry a 2nd time to a
Lacy, b. ca. 1858, and they had a child Etha, b. 1879. 4
of these family members were buried in Bear Creek Cemetery.
This cemetery is located near Earlham, Iowa.
