Hello Chant seekers,
I am Gillian Chant and have been intending to find out about my forebears for some time.
The internet databases don't have any Chants from this area as far as I can tell. All
the information I have is based on family records - they don't go very far back - and
most of it is summarised below:
My grandfather was Frederick Chant, born 27th July 1885 in Handsworth, Birmingham,
England, died 1st March 1956. He was the son of Frederick Chant and (possibly) Catherine
Stevens.
He married Florence Helen Langford in 1914
He had a brother, Albert Chant and three children, all born in Handsworth, Birmingham
Frederick Albert (my father) born 13th November 1914, died 24th February 1979,
Hilda Florence Chant, born 18th August 1916
George Arthur Chant, born February 2nd 1930.
Can anyone suggest any connections before 1885?
Yours hopefully,
Gill Chant
