Julian,
I can assure you that your William M. CHIDESTER, b 1871 in IA, is not the son of Hezekiah Morgan and Sarah PARRY CHIDESTER.
The son of Hezekiah was William Grant CHIDESTER. I have him in the 1880 and 1895 censuses living with his parents in Mantua Township, Monroe County, Iowa.
He married on 29 Nov 1896 to Francis A. HOLLINGSHEAD. And by the 1900 census he, his above wife and 2 children are living in their house in Mantua Township, Monroe County, IA.
Francis dies in 1904, he marries in 1906 to Elizabeth Sarah BOLIN and by the 1920 census of Mantua Township, Monroe County, IA has 3 more children.
I have him and family also in the 1930 census of Mantua Township, Monroe County, IA.
Family letter of 20 Feb 1945 from Minnie Chidester Sinclair states "Will Chidester is very poorly he has cancer. Has had them cured twice but they have come up by his eye. His address is Albia. He is up and down but pretty badd. I talked to Sadie Parry Lewis she was telling me Will lives on Uncle Morges place he owns it."
William Grant Chidester died March of 1951 in Albia, Monroe County, Iowa and is buried in Oakview Cemetery, Troy Township, Albia, Iowa in plot E2-131-2.
Hope this helps. Audrey

Wm.M. Chidester b:1871 in IA, d:1968 in Dumas ,AR is the correct date. It is believed at this point that he was the son of Hezekiah Chidester of Monroe Co.
I did recieve a reply stating this and a reply from a query on the IAgenweb that has the same info but in a little more depth.
He married Mattie ?? probley in 1896 or 1897 but I do not believe it was IA, more like AR as he is in the 1900 census for AR. I am trying to find her maiden name but have had no luck. At this point i'm wondering if I have the right William, son of Hezekiah.
I would like to see what you may have on him and would greatly appreciate a direct email.
Thans so much
JD

This is a reposting of a message I sent in Sept of 2004.
I have a picture from the L. S. CHIDESTER Photographer of Albia, Iowa. Name handwritten on the back says it is of George CHIDESTER. I would like to confirm that this picture is of George, by contacting a relative.
George was born about 1869 to Samuel Floyd and Celestia/Lettie STEVENSON CHIDESTER. He married on 22 February 1893 to Myrtle MILLER. They had 2 sons ... Paul and Boyd. They had divorced by the 1900 census. George was a barber by trade.
Are you related?

Julian ... did you ever get a response on your William M. Chidester query? It seems that you had his birth date listed as being after his death date. Maybe a correction would help.
I am interest in any responses you might get, as my data base is full of Iowa Chidester.
