Can someone help me with figuring out the tree? I see a lot of Chew names on this board that possibly tie into my line, but my tree of siblings isn't filled out enough to know where/if my branch connects to others. If you are connected to the line described below - anywhere along the line - would you kindly contact me? Very interested in swapping info. and figuring out how my line ties in.
Thanks in advance for any help! Brenda Weedman, bweedman(a)ssafara.net

Thanks for your help.
Consistent census entries and her death certificate state that Rebecca Ann Chew and her parents were born in Virginia. There's no known NJ connection. The certificate shows just the surnames Chew and Polan for her parents (provided by daughter, Nancy Melissa Anderson). She was known by both names - Ann in her death certificate, Rebecca in her husband's obituary two years earlier.
From long hours of census work, Joseph and Elizabeth Thomas Chew of Ross Co., Ohio, seem the most likely suspects for grandparents. I'd ruled out their sons Andrew (married Cox), Colby (bachelor), Joseph (married Baylor) and James (married Clayton) as possible fathers - leaving Ezekial, William and Lewis, whom I couldn't track, as possibilities, if those names are right. I don't know which of them were born in Virginia or when they came to Ohio.
Other possibilities for Rebecca Ann's parents are neighboring Chew and "Pullin/Pullen/Pulling" families who lived in northeast West Virginia (then Virginia) in 1830-40 - in Pendleton Co. in particular. However, I can't find marriages between these families or trace any of them to Ohio.

Seeking the parents of Rebecca Ann Chew, born on January 7, 1835 in Virginia, who died on August 20, 1913, and is buried with her husband in the Clairbourne Cemetery in Richwood, Union Co., Ohio.
She may have been a grand-daughter of Joseph Chew and Elizabeth Thomas, who migrated from Frederick Co., Virginia, to Ross Co., Ohio, which is just north of Pike County, where Rebecca Ann and her husband, Andrew Jackson Wynn (1829-1911), married on December 21, 1851, and subsequently lived. The maiden surname of her mother was recorded as "Polan" on Rebecca Ann's death certificate.
Rebecca Ann and Andrew had ten children: Mary Hannah (born 1852 who married David Kale), Diantha Bianca (born 1855 who married Benjamin Metzger), Alice Ann (born 1858 who married James Harrison Ogden), William S. (born 1861 who married Martha Ann Miller), Margaret Jane (born 1863 who married Peter G. Daum and Martin Scheldeker), Rebecca Josephine (born 1866 who married Harvey Albert Moore), John Oscar (born 1868 who married Mary E. Moore), Nancy Melissa (born 1872 who married Ed Snowden and Martin Anderson), Andrew Jackson, Jr. (born 1878 who married Elida Ward), and Charles C. (born c1873 whose wife is unknown).
