To all Chaneys:
My gr.grandparents, John and Margaret Chaney, were in Clinton county Missouri in the 1860
census. They married in that county Sept.12, 1868. I can't trace them from there.
My theory is that they moved to Ok. before statehood in 1907. I'd like to find their
ancesters and know where they originated. Any help will be appreciated.
I know both John and Margaret are buried in Ottawa Indian Cemetery located east of Miami,
Ok. His grave is unmarked. Her's is next to their son-in-law, Frank Garman. John and
Margaret had James Carl, who was my grandpa. They had Effie and Anna. Effie married
Frank Garman. Anna married Fred Sparlin. My mother had an Aunt Clara, who married a
Bradshaw. She was the mother of John Bradshaw, a wolf-hunter who had a store at Tiff
City, Mo. If you can trace any of these, please let me hear from you. Gratefully, James
