Kenny, I sent a message to the aol email and it came back. The earliest ancestor I can verify is William Chavers 1809-1880. Born in NC died in south Alabama. He was brother to Frederick, James, MAtthew, Elizabeth and Sarah. We think his father was John. Perhpas John had brothers that connect to your line. Would love to trade information. Thanks, Glenn Simmons

I am from William Chavers1809-1880. We think his father was John. He was brother to Frederick, James, Elizabeth, Matthew and Sarah. He ended up in South Alabama. I am wondering if his father John had brothers. It would seem to be tru and maybe he had a brother named William, that his son was named after...would love to trade information if you are interested. Thanks, Glenn Simmons

Do ya'll know anything of Fredericks tribal heritage. Do you know if his wife was also Indian? That generation is a huge link to the past, but info is very sketchy. I am a descendent of Fredericks brother, William Chavers who eventually settled in south Alabama. I would really like to find more on his brother James too. I have his wife and children listed but don't know much about them..thx, Glenn Simmons
