includes about 71 issues. They are not in the original format but
the words
are the same.
In addition to the main index to everything, there are also the
following indexes:
Index to Chase obituaries
Index to obituaries - names related to Chases
Index to first names of Chases - alphabetized
Index to photographs
Index to surnames - alphabetized
Index to 1790 census of the New England states - only Chases are
listed

This may help clear up some of the confusion on the CONTENT CHASES,or again
it may make it more confusing. This is from the Bristol County Probate
Records,Vol. 11,page 8.
Will of BENJAMIN RANDLE," Indian man" of Swansea dated 30 July 1745,pro. 13
Jan. 1745,names wife HANNAY, To CALEB CHASE,to ANN CHASE,CONTENT CHASE and
PELEG CHASE Jr. PELEG CHASE to be Executor. Witnesses: WILLIAM CHASE,THOMAS
WILBOUR and WILLIAM HARTT.
Apparently on the above date CONTENT CHASE was still unmarried.
According to the CHASE Genealogy PELEG (60) had children: ANNE,CONTENT,CALEB

Hi all,
Does anyone have anything on PELEG Chase, (marr. Fanny M. Taber,) son of John
Chase of Saratoga NY ...? They later moved to Illinois.
Thanks

It is rare to find errors in John Carroll Chase's work "Some Descendants of
William of Roxbury and Yarmouth", however it is heartening to know they do
happen, even to such a meticulous researcher.
Here it is, Peleg Chase (#60) had a daughter Content Chase b. 10 Feb 1734 at
Swansea, who married 12 Jul 1757 one CLEMENT KING.
trouble is, Nathan CHase and Elizabeth Shaw also had a daughter named COntent
Chase (B.5 Jul 1741 in Tiverton) who also married CLEMENT KING a couple days
earlier 10 Jul 1757 !!
It's either a little error--- or a scandal of epic proportions ! Or a Ripley's
Believe it or Not ---(2 Clements, 2 Contents married 2 days apart ?)

Subject: [Bos-St] MA Public Records closing vigilence
Date: Fri, 26 Jul 2002 11:18:12 -0700 (PDT)
Hello,
I am writing to you as both a representative of the family history
research community, and as a professional in the quality assurance and
performance of security in computer software and networks for both
military and commercial systems.
H5158 proponents are still misleading the public on the contents of the
bill. I have gotten reports that indicate many MA House Representatives
have not fully analyzed this bill.
If your representative has not given you all 36 pages of the H5158
text, you are missing the full context - and perhaps being mislead into
the notion that this bill increases access to Public Records.
It does not. A carefully structured and brief "fact sheet" response
does not address the full import.
Current MA law gives EVERYONE access to all Public Records. All Vital
Records (birth, marriage and death) are Public Records - except those
protected by confidentiality clauses for items like illegitimate and
still born births. Today's genealogists and family members are simply
employing the access rights for ALL Public Records - in person or in
writing or over the phone or through email and fax or other normal
communications.
Any "fact sheet" response or short excerpts from the bill do not take
into account the sequence of the clauses, subclauses and the changes in
the current law. H5158 is a labrynthe of clause reference dependencies
where custodians are given discretion over public access to vitals ( no
longer Public Records) without proper training or compensation for this
new security role. Surcharges will be added to the records fees to pay
for computerization, but are insufficient for the scope of changes
required throughout the Commonwealth.
H5158 has made Social Security number use, correlation of births and
deaths and validation of vitals for the MA Department of Motor
Vehicles, University of Massachusetts, firearms records, deadbeat
parents and other business use into a tail wagging a very large and
complex domestic animal!
The budgetary impact on public and private systems would create havoc
and simultaneously erase the wise foundations of a democracy laid by
the first governments of Massachusetts currently maintained in open
Public Records preservation and access.
Under current law, town clerks and other municipal employees, as
custodians of Public Records, only have to learn about a handful of
confidentiality exclusions. Even so, there are ongoing reports in the
news and complaints to Secretary Galvin's office about the
well-intentioned, but unlawful, prevention of public access to Public
Records by municipal employees. With H5158, these custodians will be
come overburdened with complex security and judgement issues - for
which they are not trained, nor compensated.
Instead of the regular, but largely informal, current reporting of
instances of public access being denied, both towns and the state will
be subject to formal actions for failure to provide the proper access.
H5158 does not provide either proper administrative procedures or
funding.
With the new law proposal of H5158, the post 1910/1950 vital records
are never going to be Public Records again. Only limited access will be
given to parties who make requests and prove their direct (2 generation
only) IN WRITING to the person of record or legal administrators and
property rights etc - subject to the discretion of the custodians -
FOREVER. Your great grandchildren will never be able to access your
records in the future unless, perhaps you write out your
permission and file it in a safe place.
Under H5158, genealogists may ONLY have limited records access IF a
first-degree (individual, grandparent, parent, child, spouse, sibling)
gives written permission - no cousin, aunt/uncle or other relative
research if you can't contact a living first degree relative.
Collateral family information for family health problems is blocked!
The Massachusetts Genealogical Council (MGC) is unalterably opposed to
the Public Records closing in H5158 and continues to support the MA
Senate bill S2302
http://www.state.ma.us/legis/bills/st02302.htm
Other opponents to H5158 include the MA Office of the Secretary of
State
http://www.state.ma.us/sec/ , NEHGS
http://www.newenglandancestors.org/about/contact/ and the MA Newspaper
Publisher's Association (70 Washington St., Salem, MA 01970 phone
978-465-7539 or E-Mail: plantejr(a)seacoast.com ).
The MA Association of Town Clerks favors the bill! There has been an
ongoing issue with MA town clerks and other municipal record custodians
allowing the access to Public Records - see this week's Globe article
about Framingham MA for the well-intentioned, but misguided beliefs
under current law of full Public Record access
http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/203/west/Using_stealth_consultant_rates...
A Globe special report in April 2001 (referenced in above article) is
available from the Boston Globe archives for a fee. The search excerpt
begins as follows -
"ACCESS DENIED
Published on April 8, 2001. ... PUBLIC RECORDS ARE TREATED LIKE PRIVATE
PROPERTY BY MANY LOCAL OFFICIALS, A SURVEY FINDS
Many municipal executives said their administrations' failure to comply
with the requests during the Globe's survey were aberrations or
illustrated their staff's unfamiliarity with the law.
"There are a lot of laws that are constantly changing, and yet we are
expected to keep up on them," said Michael Sullivan, Medfield's town
administrator. "I would rather have my staff err on the side of caution
than hand out something we ..." http://boston.com/globe/search/
If, municipal employees do not understand current law for all PUBLIC
RECORDS - where there are very few restrictions - you can be sure that
the process of having to prove who you are (if you qualify for the
H5158 short list) to access records that are no longer Public Records
will not be an easy matter!
Numerous studies (publicized long before September 11, 2001) show that
Identity fraud is conducted largely by folks who are not likely to do
real research work in Public Records offices. They only need to go
through trash! These studies show that it is cheaper for the credit
industry to cover fraud costs, than to do fact checking on applications
and/or restrict their "easy credit" web. The credit card industry fills
this country's trash bins with millions of offers each day - containing
identifying info - because so many people just throw this junk mail
away. The largest groups of Identity fraud thieves are - persons
connected with the individual (often direct family members, as they
have ready access and knowledge), persons who steal trash or wallets or
mail or break into homes (where they can get a large amount of
identifying information easily), persons who scour obituaries and
graveyards or make fraudulent phone calls to the individuals, those
who steal records from businesses and electronic schemes.
The laws in "36 other states" that restrict vital records access vary
widely in their restrictions - NONE remove recent vital records and
their indices from the PUBLIC RECORDS forever, as H5158 does. Those
states that do have "privacy periods", also have varying types of
special features to aid researchers. CT does NOT require genealogists
to have written permission from the individual of record. NY provides
record certificates marked "for genealogical purposes" only. NH has
special remedies for medical research.
H5158 is a poorly written bill that ignores the many years of work and
discussions between many groups about the pragmatic and historical
management issues of Public Records. The patchwork modifications to the
previous H132 bill are inconsistent and fraught with problems.
Do not be mislead. Get a copy of the entire bill and talk to your
representative about the scope for all of the H5158 clauses. Contact
the national FGS/NGS Records Preservation and Access Committee for
further information on issues outside of Massachusetts as well

>From the Chase Chronicle - October 1910
In the Plymouth Records, Vol. 2, Part 2,
p. 63; is recorded the Will of William Chase
of Yarmouth, signed May 4, .1659, and on
the next page of the same records is found
the Inventory of his estate, and was rendered
Sept. 14, 1659. In August, 1643, we find a
list of names of all Males that were able to
bear arms from 16 years old to 60 years in
Yarmouth,
In this list appears the name of
William Chase, Sen., and his son William
. Now for the sake of a little
argument with former Historians who claim that
William Chase was born in 1595, and which
seems to me to be a little too late. In 1659
he calls himself "aged," perhaps was over
70. In 1643 the above records state he was
to be under 60, which was 16 years before
his death.
Even if he was 59 (one year under the
year required) would make his birth in 1584.
Most authorities give it 11 years later.
Was there any law to prevent a man from
doing military service even if he was over
60 years of age, if he was anxious and willing
to do so?

Joanna CHASE of Stratham, Rockingham, New Hampshire, daughter of Jonathan
CHASE and Lydia ROLLINS married Thomas PERKINS. Joanna's father, Jonathan
CHASE, was born September 1707 in Newbury, Essex, Massachusetts. He died
August 18, 1744 in Stratham, Rockingham, New Hampshire. Her mother Lydia
ROLLINS died January 2, 1769 in Stratham, Rockingham, New Hampshire. Joanna
CHASE married Thomas PERKINS and they resided in Wakefield, Carroll, New
Hampshire where their children were born. One of their children, Polly, was
born abt. 1773. Judging from the birthdate of Polly, I would assume that
Joanna must have been born between 1733 and 1744. Probably Thomas PERKINS
was also. The History of Carroll County states that Benjamin PERKINS came
from Dover Point, NH to Wakefield, NH in 1768 and lived near his brother
Thomas. This implies that Thomas PERKINS might have also come from Dover
Point, NH. Does anyone have any information on Joanna CHASE and Thomas
PERKINS. I need dates for Joanna and the parents of Thomas as well as his
birthdate.

According to the Univ. of Maine information, Solon Chase's paper was titled
"Chase's Chronicle". Since he was very active in the Greenback Party which
in the 1878 elections was instrumental in ending 20 years of Republican rule
in Maine, I suspect the paper was most likely politically oriented.
He also published a second paper in 1882 -83 called "Them Steers". The title
apparently was taken from a quote attributed to him in a reference to the
economic conditions of the time:
>>Gold might remain as stable as the eternal hills, but somehow all other
commodities were shrinking daily. "Them steers," Solon Chase indeed said
aptly, "while they grew well, shrank in value as fast as they grew." <<
Copies of a few issues of both papers are on microfilm at the Univ. of Maine
Folger Library.
rac
Whoops !! Misread my notes when I said only three issues of Chase's
Chronicle were published. Univ. of ME only has three issues, which is not
quite the same thing. Sorry about that...

The Chase Chronicle was a newspaper, only three issues of which were
published (Chase's MIlls, Auburn ME, 1877-78). If not Solon, who was the
editor?
Were the titles identical or was the earlier (1877-78) one called
"Chase's Chronicle" and the later one (1910-1930's) "The Chase
Chronicle?"
Do you know the purpose of Solon's paper? I am guessing that it was
political
but it would be interesting to know the contents.
