According to Annamae Chandler, from her "Descendants of Martin and
William Chandler of Amelia, VA, 1700-1747/8" (her Blue Book, 11 Feb
2000), page 34 -
Henry M. Chandler born 10 Jan 1821, Calloway, KY; died 9 Dec 1904,
Rockwall, TX; (Buried Chandler Cem.)
Henry's line of descent is through -
James born 1783, Prince Edward, VA; died 14 Nov 1841, Calloway, KY
Thomas born 1748-50 Amelia-Prince Edward, VA; died 1835, Oldham, KY
Thomas born 1725, King William, VA; died 1795, Dinwiddie, VA
Martin born 1695-1700, New Kent, VA?
Henry was the first in James' family to move to Kaufman, TX; he moved in
1859, to the part which was taken out as Rockwall, TX. So many other
friends and relatives came that by 1882 there were a dozen Chandlers in
tiny Rockwall. He was paying taxes in 1877, 1878. He bought a nice
farm on the Trinity River just south of Rockwall. Henry M. Chandler
Drive still leads from Highway 740 into the site, but it is now the
Chandler Landing Yacht Club on Lake Hubbard.
He married Martha A. Wade, 1844, Marshall, KY. She was born 16 May
1826; she died 14 June 1908, Rockwall, TX.
Children:
Sarah A. born 1845, Marshall, KY
Luticia P. born Dec 1849, Marshall, KY
Hardin Wayne born 13 Aug 1852, Marshall, KY
Mary E. born 12 Aug; died 23 Oct 1855, Marshall, KY
Jesse B. born 1 Oct (13 Jun) 1857; died 3 Apr 1878
Mary F. born 1868; died 31 Dec 1869
Rosalie born 1870, Rockwall, TX.
One generation of descendants of Hardin Wayne Chandler are also listed.
No Wilsons were mentioned in this section.
