My gggrandmother was Mary Artis Chavis born in N.C., wife of John Chavis, born Va. They married and settled in Poke Patch, Gallia Co., Ohio. He was a conductor of the UnderGround RR. in that area. I first find him in 1850 in Gallia Co with Isham. I am sure the Columbus Ohio family are in this line and we have connection with the Saponi tribe.

Hi, Im searching for any info on a william c chavis that was living in Lucile, early co, GA in 1910 and 1920. The census lists that he and his wife Ava (avian) were both born in NC. I also found them in 1880 in burnt swamp township Robeson co NC living beside a henry chavis and family. In 1910 they had three children living with them, Ruby Diel (dial), Jimpsey, and Peter all listed as living with grandparents.
Ruby is my grandmother, in the 1920 census she and husband early Ussery were living next to wm and Avilan with Jempsey and Peter Dyle listed still as grandsons. This family is listed as Indian in Race.
The only other thing I have found on this connection is that in 1930 Early and ruby were listed as living in GA but had a son, Albert, born in Robeson county NC
I was given up for adoption, this is my bio family and my parents are both now dead. I would love to find what I can
thanks

I heard a story about John Chavis beating Raymond Warrick to death with his own crutch in 1979, wondering if you had run across it?
