Looking for ancestral information on William James Chancellor. Here's what I have
found.
Born 1822/23 in South Carolina (per census)
Married Amelia J MNU (b 1827 in NC) in 1913 in Pike County, Alabama
Died on 23 Nov 1914 in Pike County, Alabama
Children:
Sarah A - b 1845
Elizabeth J - b 1848 - Never married
William P - b 1851
James Edward - b 1853 - d 1933
Mary Miranda (Maranda) - b 1859 - d 1930
Records found:
1860 Federal Census
AL Civil War muster rolls (entered on 13 Jul 1861, 1st Alabama Infantry, Co G)
US General Land Office records (Certificate #s 1522, 17734, 17735)
entry in Alabama Death Records database
Their son, James Edward, and his family, as well as many other relatives, were buried at
Ebenezer First Cemetery in Pike County, AL. I have been unable to find a church
association for William James or Amelia J Chancellor, or for their other children.
Any information you can provide about William's parents, siblings or other relatives
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Ami
