I am from Dicy Katherine who married Joseph Plemons. Dicy and her brother are basically buried next to each other in Crawford Cemetery.
I have not found where James W. is buried. But I think its the same cemetery that Elizabeth was buried in. I'll have to look in my files again, but I think maybe Zion Cemetery in Forsyth Co., GA. I'll look again to be sure.
Contact me at caledo.geo(a)yahoo.com as I would like to compare information on the children of Joel Benjamin. All I wasable to find in the census records for him were just initials for the children.

Calvin:
Thanks for the update. Your information matches up with what I have been able to find. Nobody seems to know for sure where James W came from. The PCFA speculates that James W is descended from Rev James or Rev John, or perhaps a Nancy Chasteen enumerated in the 1830 census of Rutherford Co NC. Rev John seems most likely to me.
My favorite theorey is that James W. is an unrecognized son of Benjamin (Sr) Chastain [Benjamin (1794) < Abner (1764) < Rev John (1740) < Peter Pierre (1708) < Pierre Sr (1659] and Nancy Hooper. Two sources say that they had 13 or 14 children although only 10-12 are commonly listed by name.
Has anyone been able to find the grave site of James W? Might be some clues there.
I am related to James W by way of son Joel Benjamin.

James Whitt Chastain was living in Gilmer County Georgia in the 1840's, probably when he married Elizabeth. I have been unable to connect him to any parents, but have determined that all the other Chastains living there were descendants of Reverend John Chastain and Mary O'Bryan.
In 1850 James is listed two households away from Rachel Chastain, widow of Jonathan Davis Chastain.
There were also some Chastains that came from South Carolina living there, but they also come from Reverend John Chastain. Also Chastain's that lived in Hall County Georgia are descendants of Reverend John Chastain. James' wife Elizabeth is from Hall County. Her father and grandfather moved to Gilmer Co GA in the 1830's

I am having a lot of difficulty finding any info on the ancestors of a James Whitt Chastain (also sometimes described as James Wiatt Chastain)
Birth: January 11, 1813, North Carolina
Death: August 29, 1882, Forsyth Co, Georgia
Spouse: Elizabeth Clayton Smith
It appears he may be one of the "disconnected" Chastains. Any hints would be appreciated.
