Message Board Post:
I will not be much help because my research is with my northern line of Chancellors that
settled in Maryland and Virginia circa 1690. I have no one by the names you note in my
line of the Chancellor history file. That means, your family probably descended from the
Chancellor line that settle in the Carolina later (circa 1750). You might explore some of
those Chancellors and not waste a lot of time on the northern line which is much larger.
The northern line tended to be in Mary;land, Virginias, Missouri, Iowa, Arkansas and
Missouri. Both lines can now be found in Texas, and California. The southern line tends to
be found in the southern gulf states where they migrated. Many ended up in Texas.
