My Greatgrandparents were Berry and Mary Jane. My grandmother was Ethel Mae Chavis. Mary Jane was born Sept. 6 1868 and died July 22 1949 in georgia.
bBerry was born Dec. 25 1859 and died Nov.5 1960 in fl.
All I wanted was to see if someone knew anything about their parents. I cetainly do not want to claim any Chavis that are not kin. Whats so great about them anyway.
My Chavies were common people working hard to raise their families. So no thanks I'll just plod on by myself.

I have Mary Jane born Sept. 6, 1858. The 1880 census has 1869. If my dates are right, and they may not be - I will have to check my reference again - then Mary Jane was born before Hazran and Geogianna married in 1863.
The census dates are obviously wrong, although the census reports what it reports. Is there possibly two Mary Jane's?
I'll check it all out again. The Chavis info, and nearly everything related to it, is either corrupt of so confusing that it makes no sense. Cousins marrying cousins, the surname spelling changes time and time again, people may have been missed on the census.. It's a huge headache. You can't even go on what people tell you because they are misinformed.. to interested in being something they are not. I'll go to the court house again.

Email me at Cpender284(a)comporium.net and I can send you what I have on Hazery's descendants. You'll have to try to verify this info yourself, as I haven't. Someone sent it to me while I was looking for Hazery's brother John Urias "Rias" Ashe.

I still have everything you sent me. I just can't find anything on who their mother might have been. I keep hoping someone will surface. According to my picture, John Rias does not look Indian at all. So maybe their mother wasn't an Indian either. What race do you have for John's father Isham? or John's brothers?

I had Hazery marrying Gerogianna on Nov 25, 1867 in Orangeburg, SC. But once again, I haven't tried to verify this. Someone sent me this info.
I don't have a marriage date on Mary Jane and Berry. But if they did marry on Jan 21, 1880, then Mary Jane would have been 9 years old and Berry 21 according to my dates. I have her as being born 9/6/1871. I have their first child (Charlie) being born in 1895.
Then again, here we go into the Chavis line again, and my mind just can't go there right now.

Yeah, I've been busy this summer and haven't had much time to dig.
I'm not following you on Georgianna only being 10-12 when Mary Jane was born. If Georgianna was born <1850> and Mary Jane <1869>, wouldn't that make Georgianna 19 when Mary Jane was born?
I have Mary Jane's dates as b. Sept.06,1871; d. July 22, 1949 and her sister Margie L. with dates b. Dec. 25, 1874 d. 1952.
I show Hazery and Georgianna had 11 children. But this wasn't my main line I was reseraching so I haven't verified anything. I can send you what I have on them. I guess one of the grand's documented this info as I saw Henrietta Ash listed. I have seen several of her posts on this site.
Still at a brick wall with Hazery and John Rias' parents.

I know what the 1880 census reads; I just posted it yesterday. I wasn't speaking of Ancestry, either. I was speaking of every website I have visited in the last 10 years about the Chavis'.
Hazey and Georgianna or Berry and Mary Jane are your great grandparents?
If I am wrong, give me proof. I have offered several times to help correct the Chavis genealogy. It is causing MANY problems, anyway. You and Cindy are welcome to email me privately and we can get this information straight together. If you don't want my help, then say so. Good luck to you in your endeavor.

Hi Cindy. I haven't heard back from you since April.
1880 Census, Hebron Township, Orangeburg County, South Carolina:
Hazey H. Ashe, head, <1852>, born South Carolina
Georgianna Ashe, wife, <1850>, born South Carolina
Hazey Ashe, son, <1880>, born South Carolina
Ida C. Ashe, daughter, <1873>, born South Carolina
Laurina Ashe, daughter, <1877>, born South Carolina
Marjy L. Ashe, daughter, <1869>, born South Carolina
Mary Jane Ashe, daughter, <1869>, born South Carolina
William Arthur Ashe, son, <1871>, born South Carolina
I still don't believe Georgiana is the mother of Mary Jane. According to the census record aboev, Georgiana would have given birth to Mary Jane at age 10-12. I'm not believing that at all.
Also, Marjy L. and Mary Jane are either birth twins or Irish twins according to this census record. I could believe either case.

I just saw a post where someone listed Berry Chavis' family with Barry Chavis. Barry Chavis is supposed to be born in 1838 and died in 1950. Does anyone know of a human being in that era that lived to be 120 years old? Look at the dates, and use your own common sense to make a judgment.
These are NOT typos! Everyone is so busy copying each other that no one is really looking at what info they have. These kinds of errors make serious people like me, who want a truthful genealogy, very upset.
I have the Chavis genealogy and it is just too screwed up to even use as a reference. I would have to be paid to get it straight. I would love to see it done.

Mary Ashe is supposedly the daughter of Hazran Ashe, but there is no way Georgianna Pou could possibly be her mother. Mary was born when Georgianna was 7 years old. I also find it hard to believe Hazran had his first children at age 13, but it is possible I guess.
Mary Jane died in Georgia. Her husband, Berry B., died in Florida.
The Chavis genealogy info you will find online is wrong. There's no way around it. It is just wrong. No one has ever questioned it before, or has ever paid any attention to the dates, and has not ever truely researched this family. All fothe Chavis' do not descend from Lazarus Chavis - and nothing proves a relationship with that man at all other than a common surname.

Pam, what area of South Carolina did they live? If they lived near Salley, SC, then any records available would be in the Aiken courthouse. If she was in the McColl area of SC, records would be in Marlboro County.
Where did she die? When did she die?
I'll see if I can find something for you and get back with you. I have so much I don't even know what I have anymore.
