There are so many errors on the captioned person's name on various Family Trees..
Susannah and Zadok Chidester did have a daughter named Susannah America Chidester born on 24 May 1854 in Monroe County, Iowa. In the censuses of 1856, 1860, 1870 and 1880 she goes by the named of America. She married Wiley William McFadden (born 20 May 1854) and had 2 sons (William ... known as Willie) and Wiley, along with 3 daughters. Susannah American Chidester McFadden died on 25 June 1885 in Chariton, Lucas County, Iowa and is buried in the Chariton Cemetery. There is an i nscription of her birth and death dates on the back of her parents' tombstone in the Bethel Cemetery, Monroe Couny , Iowa.
In all of the records that I have on Susannah Tharp Chidester I have never seen her with an additional (first or middle) name of America. If someone has proof than please let me know ... otherwise I would really like to see the error corrected on all those Ancestry Family Trees.
I am a great great granddaughter of Susannah Tharp Chidester and have been researching the Chidester line since 1947. My great grandfather Elliott Chidester went West to Washington Territory and received correspondence from family back in Iowa through the years ... which I have. Lots of good stories.
Love to make contact with other descendants of Zadok and Susannah Tharp Chidester.
