Seeking descendants of Oliver W. Chesnut, who married Mary L. "Mada" Scott (1861-1910) of Benton County, Indiana. Their children were William, Myra, Ethel, Amy, Ida, Nettie, Icel, and John F.
Oliver and Mary lived in Illinois at one time and also Mississippi. Mary Scott was the daughter of Hugh M. and Elmira Catey Scott. I have many old Scott letters, including several about the birth of these children, and am willing to share.
