Linda,
Our Shadrack Meshack Chandler is believed to be the brother of your Malinda
Chandler. Both appear to have been born in Amite, MS and later moved across
the river to Livingston Parrish, LA.
Shadrack left LA prior to 1860 where he is found in the Hillsborough Co, FL
census living in Tampa. He was married to Adaline Tucker on 30 Jan 1845 in
Springfield, LA. She was d/o Beza Tucker and Mary Kinchen. Adaline was born in
LA.
Shadrack was the son of Samuel Chandler and Anna Efferson. He was born 23
Dec 1824 and died 16 Apr 1898 in Basinger, FL and is buried there along with
Adeline Tucker.
I descend through Shadrack's daughter, Annie Lucy Chandler, who married Paul
Ernest Gibson of Troup Co, GA and Appalachia, Franklin Co, FL.
