I am double checking information on Stephen CHAUDOIN, s/o Benjamin S.
CHAUDOIN. The information in the book below states, "He married (into Texas
of Robert's quarter in 1840 as to the battle of Mexican war) Suszanna R
Philpott (1850 cenus [sic...census A.H.], 1860 is living in home of
parents), 15 Feb 1849, in Barren Co, KY."
(Source: SMITH, Gloria J. Cowan, 331 Mesa Verde St., Vallejo, CA 94589,
"Chaudoins of Virginia, 1750-1900," Gateway Press, Inc., Baltimore, MD,
1995, Library of Congress #94-73049, p. 31)
>From this I presume that Stephen & Susan were living at the time of 1850
Census in Barren Co., KY and by 1860 Census, Susan was widowed and living
with her children at the home of her parents.
Can anyone fill me in on information about the Mexican War here? Did
Stephen enlist in the Mexican War and was sent to a Robert's Quarter in TX?
I confess my ignorance here.
Does anyone have any additional information on Stephen? From my research, I
have that Stephen died 14 Jan 1859 in Center, Metcalf Co., KY and was buried
at the Center Cemetery. I also have that his widow, Susan, received $50
from the estate of his father, Benjamin. His children were mentioned as
being Emly E. and Jose in Deed Bk. 27, p. 97, Jul 1869, Green Co., KY.
Stephen is probably named for his maternal grandfather, Stephen GUPTON.
Corrections, additions, comments are appreciated.
Emily's name has been given as Mary Emily, Eler Emly, and Emily E. Anyone
know which is correct?
Jose's name has been given as Jose and Jesse J. Any one have additional
information of him.

Hello,
Fred at Stfm(a)aol.com sent this information to me. He is descended from
Creed Madison CHAUDOIN who was his g-gf and his gf was Will Roy CHAUDOIN.
I believe Fred has now subscribed to CHAUDOIN-L, so if you are out there
Fred, how can our many CHAUDOIN experts help you? Or...did you just want to
contribute your lineage?
Maybe you would be willing to share what you know about your family and we
can go from there. Would love to hear more.
Happy New Year Everyone.
Love and Friendship,
Audrey
Hello, All,
I will not dwell on this topic, because this is not the place for discussion
of the copyright law, but as moderator when one gets off topic, I am to step
in according to RootsWeb guidelines. This is the discussion list for the
CHAUDOIN family. If anyone is interested in the copyright law, then there
is another discussion list one can join called COPYRIGHT-L.
To share the title and author of a book is not a copyright infringement. No
one is asking anyone to violate a copyright, if the information was found in
such a book, but it would be nice to share the title of the book and author.
Also, to paraphrase or give short excerpts from books is not a copyright
infringement, as I understand the copyright law, and in all due respect, the
book & author should be given credit as at least one of the resources.
That's what this discussion list is about. And...to compare information for
research and scholastic discussion is not a copyright infringement, so that
corrections, deletions, etc. can add to the value of one's genealogy.
Many on other discussion lists (and this list) have freely shared
information directly from a family record, their own research, or the Bible
itself. I am sure many have been collecting their own family histories for
years and have spent much money in the process, yet they are willing to
share their finds, just as others are not. That's a personal matter and
it's up to each individual to do as they want. However, public information
is out there, and others will locate it on their own, as many have already
done, and will share their finds. That is NOT copyright infringement.
Many Bible records have been put at various locations on-line, because
family members felt like they wanted to share part of their family lineage.
Many have already put on-line their family lineages after many years of
research, so others might benefit from their findings, and so information
may not be lost.
Also, there are big projects on-line where members of discussion lists are
putting together lineages from each contributor. On my husband's HANCOCK
list, a committee is gathering via GEDCOM's & e-mails the various lineages
of HANCOCK people to help bring together families and correct information.
These are then being put on-line on a webpage for all to see and use (now &
in the future).
I am sure many of us are eager to find our CHAUDOIN connections, but equally
as eager to get the information correct when there appears to be a
contradiction, so that sources and resources can be checked and rechecked.
This is what this discussion list is about. There appears to be numerous
contradictions to many of our genealogies, so questions are being asked and
comparisons made. That's why this is called a discussion list.
We are part of the CHAUDOIN Discussion List, and hopefully, we are here to
share and compare without violating any copyright laws. That's what we are
about, and hopefully the reason you have joined the list.
I wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR,
Audrey Shields Hancock
Husband is Descendant of Francis, Sr.; Francis, Jr.; Benjamin S. CHAUDOIN
who married Henrietta GUPTON.

I appreciate your reply to the "copy right" question being debated. I
purachased a book from the upholder other view. I do not mind saying
there is several mistakes made on the lineage of David Chaudoin family. I
do not know why or how and do not wish to debate her on the subject, I am
sorry that many are misled by what is often written. I won't go further. I
am glad of what you wrote. Thanks

I have a letter dated March 30, 1914 mailed from Donansburg KY, from
Granvel Porter Lobb to James Michael Washington Lobb in Hopkins Co. TX..
There have been several posts from Chaudoins lately, and the letter
contains several surnames. I thought it might help someone. If your name
is mentioned contact me privatly and i will share it with you. Following
is a portion of the letter. " ther has been some deaths the last few
days John Thompson of Crail Hope and Jennie Hawk [Houk ] of Exie and
P.W.Sandidge of Bale." One other " times is bad and folks are leaving
this place like John Grimsley, John Cook, and Thomas Chaudoin has gone
to Illinois and Lee Judd starts today." Maybe a date here will help
someone, I hope so.. Happy Hunting. Bill Bentley

Or...they would like to know exactly what it does say.

That David Rankin is another man, and most likely the grandson of the first
one. I have a book put out by a girl and her sister who is distantly related
to me, that did all the cemeteries of Marion CO, except the one which we found
that had the Chaudoin's that were missing off the Census. I had a lady down
in Fla. that had written a short
story about this area and she had them coming out of LA. and were French
settlers who couldn't speak English. Good theory, but wrong dicrection. Now
to begin with I started this research with my Father, whom I knew and then my
Grandparents, and then went to all that I could find on that line, my
Grandmother was the fly in the ointment as she had married three husbands and
had children by two. I then contacted all my uncles and then went to KY
again, which is where I got the beginings of my book. My Gt. G. M. was Lucy
Shadoan and born in Pulaski CO, KY and where she (m) and died at as well as
her sister Lydia,and then on to her parents and grandparents. All had died in
this CO. coming into KY 1811 and then down to Green CO, KY. Then to VA. and
TN. This was done in different years and many different trips to KY. Then on
to GA. where we had heard that all of the Chaudoins were buried in Confederate
Cemt. There, we check the books and also the caretakers and the stones, no
Chadoans, Shadoawens, None of the family.!!
The final trip was to Richmond, VA. Archives and still feel that someone could
do the
Rankin's who is aware of the Historical meaning to this name. I have Burge &
Rankin's in my own family of Cowan's and have my hands full with my own
family.
No one is saying the book is 100 o/o correct, but the best that I could offer
with such a small computer and such a bad printer. Westie GS
We went by the Claim James C, had by the Tenn. archives and we too feel as
thou he was rather young, Sucky was a hated name by the girls, and Ann Rankin
is mentioned in the Green Co. Court Min. as being Ill and being treated by a
doctor, part of the children are also noted to have been, David II as being
older than Calvin, and please believe me this is no mystery, there are other
children and the kids just seem to appear in Marion CO, but you need to do the
Campbell and Green CO, as well as Sequetchie CO, TN. to get all of the
children. We also had a family bible that we got from one of the Gt. G.D. and
even found an old cemetery over in Jasper where one of the sons died at.
Westie GS
We have a better copy of John Shadden's service in the war. It was taken from
the family bible which Sarah the widow offered the Court, which had the
grandchildren and the dates of there births. Westie GS
yes, this is true, and the fact of the matter is, the 1850 census had a
Shadden in it but I ran that down to ground and they were supposed to have
been in Sheverport,and I never found them. But there were at least one family
that came out of Tenn, down to LA. about 1870 spelled Chadoin and Shadowin.
William A. and you will find him in the census of 1870 and on. Look in the
phone book and see if they still live in the area. Westie GS
REva I am sorry, I looked at my papers and it was B. F. Bridgman who was
partners with James Chaudoin. David Rankin was the court clertk at the
time and for many years..

Stay in there Reva. It certainly could be that Anne Rankin could have been
the wife of our James Chaudoin, but the dates are crazy for his susposed
marriage. I know that somewhere the Rankins and James Chaudoin must have
been related, they were too close of business associates. I have not done
any research on this. I have the book published by Gloria Smith and she
says that James' wife was Ann Rankin. She states on paage 21 that Anne was
and he were married 1805; born abt 1790 in NC and died abt 1836 in Green
Co. Tn. She list the dates of the birth of the children different from what
I have. Do you have this book. I think this is where so many errors in our
Chaudoins are comming from. Well here is her list.---David (4) I do not
know what the 4 is for. ---Mary born 20 Sept 1807 in Green Co. Tn.--Emily
J. 1811 in Green Co. Tn.- Martha D. 1813 in Green Co. Tn.---Surepta about
1815 in Green Co. Tn,-- Calvin Morgan (no date given) and Louisa C. no
date given. I have lost my Orb. of James death but I am almost certain that
the write up did not mention any wife at death. The the division of land
certainly did not give a wife portion. Stay in there, I see your work and
appreciate you.
R. S.
I hope you and your family had a merry Christmas and hope for you a happy
New Year.

Hello, Everyone,
The information and resources below looks very convincing that Sarah's
maiden name was MOORE. Then how and where does the name of Sarah Wheeler
MATTHEWS fit in? I can understand that the MATTHEWS was from a former
marriage, but where does the validation for WHEELER come in? What are the
resources that say she was a WHEELER or perhaps had "Wheeler" as a part of
her given name (?perhaps Sarah Wheeler MOORE). Perhaps this comes from the
fact that a John WHEELER (mentioned below) was the security for the marriage
bond, so it was assumed her father was a WHEELER. Perhaps her mother's
maiden name was WHEELER or even GUTHRIE, but none of this has been proven.
Looks like more
research needs to be done.
If we are to do this family justice, we need to validate our resources as
"Optimistic Dave" shows here. I would hate for an error to continuously be
repeated, if there is no validation for that error. We have run into that
with my husband's HANCOCK line. One birthplace for an ancestor has been
repeated in so many books from a single resource that everyone believes he
was born there, yet research is showing just the opposite.
Hopefully we can use this Discussion List as a resource for getting at the
facts and the truths.
Happy New Year, Everyone.
Thanks, Dave, for sharing so generously your research.
That's what we are hopefully about...and the pros and cons help us to sort
things out.
Love & Friendship,
Audrey Shields Hancock

I'm confused about this supposed marriage of James C. CHAUDOIN to Anne RANKIN.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Source: Marriage database at Ancestry.Com on the internet
RANKIN, Anne md SHADDON, James on 05 Dec 1805 in Greene Co., Tn
DEARMOND, James md SHADDON, Suckey on 15 Mar 1802 in Roane Co, Tn
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Are these dates incorrect? When was Anne Rankin born?
*IF* this is our James C. CHAUDOIN - then he was 11 yrs. old when he married Anne
(we can't change his age because according to his obituary he was 43 in 1837). I
don't know who the above James and Suckey SHADDON are, but I don't believe this is
our JAMES -
father of CALVIN and son of DAVID. The info that I have shows Calvin Morgan
Chaudoin to be the oldest child of James and Unknown Wife (src: R.S. SANDERS ~
published in his book titled "ANCESTORS and DESCENDANTS of HENRY SIMEON
SAUNDERS"). Calvin was born 1819 - his father would have been 25. If James C.
married in 1805, as indicated by the above marriage record, how did he and Anne
avoid having children until 1819? According to the book by R.S. SANDERS our James
died 29 Oct 1837 at the age of 43 and was preceeded in death by his wife (unnamed)
- they left seven orphaned children (his source "The Repubilican National Banner"
newspaper dated 7 Nov 1837).
What is the source that the James CHAUDOIN, who married Anne RANKIN, is the son
of David Chaudoin, Sr and Mary DAVID?
Clarification greatly appreciated.....
