Hi Alicia, if he is the same person Milton Chissum (I recalled that he was named Melington?) he is my grandfagther too. You are right, he was in Bolivia in the 1920s. and he had a son,my father Guillermo Magno (that he called "Billy" and he was born in 1926) with my grandmother Esperanza from Trujillo, Peru.These relationship didn't progress and my fagther use to tell us that when he was 6 years old and before his father returned to USA, he asked my father if he wanted to go with him to USA but my father wanted to stay with his mother.I have pictures of my grandfather standing in front of a mine in Bolivia with mine workers. I have a document with his signature and some pictures of brothers Bill,Anita.....and in the back of pictures is written house in Tampico, and my father kept these pictures from his father.....my father used to tell us that his father sent him letters but his mother didn't encourage a father/son relationship and letters stopped. Melington Chisum was in !
Peru too because my great aunt used to tell us that she met him. I have a document from Bolivia's Embassy where my father and grandmother got visa to enter that country, south of Peru.
There was a itme, maybe 9 years ago, when I tried to find my gradfather origin but I ecountered with Chisums that the name Melington didn't ring a bell to them, although one explained to me that the Chisums emigrated to other states. My father past away in 1992 and we are six sibblings from Peru. Four (Maria, Teresa, Dora and myself) of us are in USA,one Dante is in Colorado and William is still in Peru.
My email is nellychissum(a)yahoo.com and my phone is 305-4464696 (after 7.00 pm.)

Hi! My grandfather was not an engineer. However, I think that he did work on the mines in Bolivia. Also yes, he did have family in Tampico.
He must have emigrated to Bolivia in the middle or late 1920's.
Are we related?
My mail is amendozachisum(a)hotmail.com
I would like to hear from you. Regards
Alicia
