To: Jeffrey Chance;
My grandmother was a Chance. Although I don't recognize the names you
mention, I have the Chance direct line back to John Chance (1775) in
Virginia, and his father Benjamin Chance. Also have 'siblings of...' for my
grandmother (b. to William Hutton Chance, who married in Kansas 1902) and
for William (b. to Hugh McClelland Chance, who married in Virginia 1873).
This line mainly stays in Virginia, but they were in Kansas in late 1800's/
early 1900's before moving here to Oregon. Maybe you can find a name you
recognize here they could help you get back to your line. (*NOTE: This
information comes to me from my uncle Victor Jacobs, Tillamook OR, who has
researched the family extensively for many years. I have not personally
verified anything further back than Hugh/Victoria family.*) Good luck,
Stephanie
