Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to follow up on some research I did on the Chase's in Nova
Scotia year's ago. Evidently a number of New England Chase's that were
Loyalists emigrated to Nova Scotia in the mid to late 1700's. My
research showed most or all of them to be related and descendants of
William Chase who came to Mass around 1630 and ended up in Yarmouth
around 1638. His great-grandson Stephen Chase b. 2May1709 in Swansea
with sons Joseph and Jethro were grantees in Cornwallis township in Nova
Scotia around 1760. Zaccheus Chase b. 3March1759 also emigrated to
Falmouth township Nova Scotia the same year (also descendant of
William). I was not successful years ago linking my family to this line
in Nova Scotia although it appears most likely. Working backwards my
g.g.grandfather was James William Chase b. 10June1849 who married Annie
Freedom Barkhouse. His father, my g.g.g.grandfather was John Chase with
mother's name Julia (maybe) but that's all I have. My theory is that
the descendants of the previous named Chase's that emigrated to Nova
Scotia would provide the missing link but researching the web those
lines that went to Nova Scotia always come to an end!! Any information
on Chase's emigrating to Nova Scotia would be appreciated.

Hi, everyone! We have only one Chase on our family tree and I could use
some help. My husband's gggg-grandmother was Jane Chase who married
Nathan Dow at Salisbury MA May 20, 1789. They had at least one
daughter, Lydia, who married Enoch Gove. Is there anyone connected to
this family out there?

I'm looking for help in tracing my Chase family in Iowa. There daughter
married in Cedar Co. Iowa, in 1864. I believe the family came from New York
to Iowa. I found Mary Chase buried with her daughter Esther Priscilla Mae
Chase Peron in Plymouth County Iowa. Cedar Co is on eastern side of Iowa and
Plymouth Co on the western side. James and Esther Chase Peron moved to
Plymouth Co after 1880.
There is a Chase family in neighboring Woodbury Co IA that is connected to
Aquila Chase. One of their sons moved from Woodbury to Decatur Co Iowa, same
township, and at approx. same time (1897) William Peron, son of James and
Esther, moved to Decatur Co. I suspect there's a connection. Has anyone

Hello All,
Is there any possibility that Wm. Jr. didn't have a 2nd wife at all - and the 4
youngest children attributed to him were really the children of his son
William's 1st wife? The dates would fit much better, they would be much closer
in age to their wives - it just seems more logical. Also, William 3rd could
easily have beem married before his recorded marriage to Hannah Sherman, since
he was already 31 years of age at that time. I have no evidence, just this
working hypothesis that it makes more sense out of the records in existence.

SOME OF THE DESCENDANTS OF WILLIAM CHASE
OF ROXBURY AND YARMOUTH, MASS.
Compiled by
George Walter Chamberlain

John Carroll Chase

Holyoke, Mass.
1983
2. WILLIAM2 CHASE (William1), of Yarmouth, born in England
as early as 1627, died at Yarmouth 27 Feb. 1684/5. He married
first, about 1644, (???); and secondly (???). It has
been said that he had four children by each wife, and that his
second wife was Elizabeth Holder. One Christopher Holder
of Olveston, co. Gloucester, England, came to Boston in 1656,
but, since he espoused the views of the Quakers, he was banished
in 1659 and fled to Newport, R. I. He married, 12 Aug.
1660, Mary Scott. Among his nine children born at Newport
was Elizabeth Holder, born 4 Jan. 1664/5, who, when William
Chase died, would have been barely twenty years of age. As
it has been claimed that the four youngest children of William
Chase were born of his second wife, and as the eldest of these
four children sold land in Harwich in 1695 and therefore
must have been born as early as 1674, when Elizabeth Holder
was only about ten years old, it is impossible for her to have
been the second wife of William Chase. No other Holder
family has been found in New England before 1700.
Rev. John Eliot, in his records of the Roxbury church (pp. 73-74), stated
that William Chase came with his parents in 1630 and was "a child of ill
qualitys & a sore affliction to his parents." As "William Chase Junr" he
was listed in August 1643 among the Yarmouth men between sixteen and sixty
years of age who were able to bear arms. (Plymouth Colony Records, vol. 8,
p. 194.) He was probably the William Chase who was in the military service
from Yarmouth as a "drummer" from 24 Aug. to 2 Sept. 1645, and received an
extra fee of 5s. for his services. (Ib., vol. 2, p. 91.) The following
entry is found in the records of a General Court held at Plymouth on 6 Mar.
1654/5:
"William Chase Junr. for goeing into the house of Richard Berry, and taking
away by violence a p'cell of flax and a smale p'cell of hose yarne, was
sentanced to sitt in the stockes an houre on a training day att Yarmouth."
(Ib., vol. 3, p. 74.)
He lived near Herring River, on the east side of Bass River, in Old
Yarmouth, in the part which is now either Dennis or Harwich.
On 2 June 1685 it was ordered by a General Court held at Plymouth "that
Capt. John Thacher & Mr. Barnabas Lothropp [are] to setle the estate of
William Chase, of Yarmouth, deceased." (Ib., vol. 6, p. 170.)
Children, probably by first wife, born at Yarmouth:
4. i. WILLIAM,3 b. about 1645.
5. ii. JACOB, b. about 1647.
6. iii. JOHN, b. 6 Apr. 1649.
iv. ELIZABETH, m. 27 May 1674 DANIEL BAKER, son of Francis and
Isabel Baker of Yarmouth.
Children, probably by second wife, born at Yarmouth:
7. v. ABRAHAM.
8. vi. JOSEPH, b. about 1673.

revised version as usual, this week-end.
I am awaiting a a copy of FTM before I make a choice between that and Legacy.
Both these programs allow more extensive notes and are mora compatible with

I also have a "CHASEs of Chesham gedcom" from Dick Chase and following his
very well reasoned treatise on this subject I want to include it as Notes to

ALL,
This is my"egg all over my face time".
I have had a gedcom called Robin.ged for some time. Debbie and Richard have
been helping convert it to my ancient BK5 type dbase.
Thay ahve,as always,been sucsessful BUT now I cannot find where it came from!
The early data refers to Benjamin BROLIN and Mary LEE and there are notes
with their info. There are about 1,500+ names in the dbase but many we
already have.
Could the owner of this database contact me with a straight line of
descent,( as on the Researcher Page),within the database to enable me to
track to where it has info not at present in our database on site.
If you have already filled in the form on The Chase Researcher page all I
need is YOUR name,

Hello all..
Abraham appears magically in New Brunswick, in the Northeast/French-speaking
area, in time for the 1861 census...I have spoken to his descendants...
Apparently he served on a British lumber -transport ship...was abused...and
jumped off in Richibucto...he was found lying under the verendah of a house
(according to one story) by a French family who took him in and raised him as
their own ...He grew up hating the English, speaking French, was ROman
Catholic, unlike most other Chases...and his farm exists to this day in
Adamsville, Kent Co., outside Moncton (Monkton) NB
The other story is a RC priest took him in, took him into the faith (in
Buctouche) then placed him with a French/Acadienne family..
BUT I don't think he came from this side the Atlantic .......
(note , this line of CHases is RC to this day, whereas all other lines in NB
are FW Baptist or Anabaptist, or Baptist. There are some C of E, there is one
"Methodist" family.so this is quite an anomoly given the Quaker beginnings or
many of them)
Anyway......born abt 1795 ?? in England ?? anyone ?????
Thanks
Derek

he was begotten ! and by whom .
Anyone with anything on Yorkshire CHASE folks please let me know.

Re: the colour (since this is British) of the canton & lion on
the Chesham Chase device: the Chase/Chamberlaim quote
is for a "canton or, a lion passant azure". I also have a more
modern description (which I got when I was in England a couple
of years ago) of "the most ancient Coat of Arms" found for the
CHASE family (unspecified branch) which describes "four golden
crosses and on a gold square top left a blue lion." I guess the
early Chases didn't go in for gold lions, preferring blue ones.
