I have been waiting for some connection to my 2nd great grandmother born in
Mississippi, whose parents from Alabama...for so long...i guess this must be
wishful thinking. But her name is Cordelia Francis Chaney born 1863...do not
have any info on her...because many records could have been burned during
the civil war. Just touching base..because of the name Cordie.

Message Board Post:
I'm trying to gather information on my grandfather. These are the solid
facts that I have:
Born May 19, 1866
Died June 20, 1940
Looking at census records there is some question about whether he was born
in North Carolinia, or Tennessee, even Virgina - the records I have been
able to dig up are very confusing - most names match, but places of birth do
not.
Loose Facts:
My grandfathers fathers name was possibly Jefferson or Nataniel Jefferson
Chaney. My grandfather had been married once previously to someone possibly
named Cordie - they had a son Willian Eldridge Chaney - I recognize the name
because my father has mentioned it before. He remarried Nola Jones & they
had my father John Henry Chaney Jr.
John H Chaney Senior died when my father was very young, so I can't get much
information from him. John H Chaney is buried at a small cemetary somewhere
outside Rogersville Tennessee, along with my grandmother Nola.
Can anyone help fill in some of the blanks here? Any help would be
appreciated.
