Should have said that there was also a Frederick Chant born 1853 at
Burlington Co, born England. Could he be a brother of James ?

Hello Listers, especially John,
When trying to locate who this James Chant might be I came across a
Joseph and Elizabeth Chant also of Burlington County, NJ. Their
birthdates are roughly mid 1820's in England. Could these be the
parents of James ? On the 1900 and 1910 census returns they are living
only streets away from James's widow Lydia and their children.
After looking at the 1851 census I came across a Joseph Chant born 1825
Stoke, Somerset with wife Elizabeth and daughter Jane and Martha. I
could'nt find these on the 1861 census. So did they migrate to the
States ?
John can you add any detail, or at least eliminate this Joseph from our
possibilities ?
Regards,
Sean
