My name is Jill and I am with the Anderson County Texas Historical Commission and am working on a historical marker for Pervy Lee (P.L.) Chism. He spent most of his youth in Lamar County Texas. I am searching for any family members still living. I need more information about his life and I also would very much like the family to be in attendance at the dedication. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Sam, I am your double cousin Cheryl. I am a descendant of John Chism's sister Paralee and I am also a descendant of Mary Willis's Uncle Holsey Willis. The Willis Family Reunion will be held in Memphis TN Aug 3rd, 4th and 5th. Check out the web page www.willisfamilyreunion.org. The Chism family reunion is the same day in Connecticut. Send me your e-mail address and I will send you an invitation to see the family tree. Also you are a descendant of Sylvester Chism. I am also. I carry her maternal mitochondrial DNA because I am the daughter of a daughter and so on. I had my DNA tested with family tree DNA and finally after seven years of searching we got a match. Sylvester's DNA matches the EWE tribe in Ghana. I was able to connect with the tribe members here in Chicago. I was accepted into the tribe and given my initiation rites and tribal beads. Our entire family is accepted into the tribe if you are interested let me know. Cheryl
