Hi
Following is a list of the Chants who lived in Puddletown/Yoevil/side trips
to Sherborne/and USA (Minneapolis). My basic stumbling block is still the
marriage of John Chant and Mary Davis and birthplace of John Chant. I
realized this list has been updated quite a bit since last posted and
thought
it is time to do so again. Sherron Biddle (sherronrbiddle(a)cs.com)
