I have received a reply to the email I sent to the Jamestowne Society requesting
information, this was sooner than I anticipated.

Dear Barbara:
John Chandler is indeed a Qualifying Ancestor for Jamestowne Society membership. However,
none of our current membership has claimed this line of descent. Therefore there are no
approved lineage papers available for purchase.
Membership in the Jamestowne Society (JS) is by invitation. Therefore you will need a
sponsor who will recommend you for membership. If you know a Jamestowne Society member
ask that person to assist you. Otherwise I suggest you contact one of the JS companies
listed on the Companies page of the website (
www.jamestowne.org). You do this by snail
mail. Explain your interest in the society and your desire to join and outline the
lineage you propose to use in your application. Give personal information about yourself
and family, and develop a rapport such that the member you contact will want to become
your sponsor.
Sincerely,
Carl Jordan
for the Jamestowne Society
I have been exploring the website and found another qualifying Chandler under the list of
Adventurers:
George Chandler
