Hi List,
My 2nd ggrandfather was John L. Chaney who died December 08, 1898 Tidal,
Armstrong County, Pa. John married Suphronia A. Myers about 1858 in Pa. and
they had 7 children. I have most of that information but my brick wall is
John L. (don't know what the L. stands for) From census information John
appears to be born around 1827 in Pa. Family stories say John was born in
Bedford Co., Pa. Some family members say his father was Richard Chaney and
he was the only son and had a couple of sisters. Another family member, who
died many years ago, gave me the following names of Richard's children. No
one knows the name of John's mother. They say he never talked about his
family.
Thank you and any help is appreciated.
