Whoa Bev,
What is this 1900 WA 2-WD Spokane page 77 ?
I have the 1900 census report on this John & Elizabeth and the two kids,
Chester & Emmie. I did not see anything about a Joseph Buster, BUT, I AM ALL
EARS for this information.
Incidentally, I wrote before that my father stated on his marriage
certificate (1930) that his fathers name was A.J. Chandler. What I did not say, was
that on his Social Security application he stated that his father's name was
John J. Chandler. This led me to investigate this family man year's ago and of
course the only male I could see was the son Chester who was born in 1885.
Even though the year of birth was off from my father's (Joe Buster Chandler) of
1899, I followed Chester to his marriage and move to Oregon. Unfortunately,
I could not find a connection.
Please write me back on this Joseph Buster that you found and where I can
obtain the information.
Best regards;
