Hi all
My cousin and I will be traveling to Tennessee next week for a long Labor Day weekend. While we're there, we REALLYREALLYREALLY want to meet real live relatives!
We descend from Rev Joel C CHITWOOD and his wife, Mary Jane TRAMMELL, who raised their family in Winfield, Tennessee.
Their children were
Eldora "Dora" CHITWOOD who married Eugene BRADEN
Jarvis CHITWOOD who married Ellen BLANKENSHIP
Arbana "Bannie" CHITWOOD who married John Albert CRABTREE
Susie CHITWOOD who married John Elswick CHITWOOD
Zellie CHITWOOD (who did not marry)
Nancy Jane "Nanny" CHITWOOD who marred Louis GRANT
Charity CHITWOOD (our grandmother) who married John X SCHRADER
Charley CHITWOOD who married (1) Rachel CRABTREE and (2) Stella May MAXEY
Frankie CHITWOOD who married (1) Calvin SHARP, (2) ?? BYRD
Coney CHITWOOD who married Ida whose last name I will remember after I send this..
George CHITWOOD (who did not marry)
The family tree also includes HAMBYs and the descendants from Rebekah HAMBY who married James TRAMMELL.
If you are - or know someone who is - a member of any of these families, PLEASE email me back and let me know!
We had hoped to reacquaint ourselves with Modean SHARP and Rev Jack CHITWOOD, but - unforunately - both of them have passed on. So, the rest of you step forward and introduce yourselves to your Michigan cousins!!
Hoping to meet lots of you!
Nancy
from Michigan

I have not yet been able to trace my Chitwood line any farther than my ggGrandfather William Chitwood. He is found in the 1860 Coffee Co. AL. census with his wife and four kids.
William Chitwood 25 1834 South Carolina
Louisa C. 24 1835 AL
Martin 6 1853 AL
Oliver 5 1854 AL
Mary J. 4 1855 AL
James 1 1858 AL
I have loads of info on Martin Alexander, Thomas Toliver, Mary Jane and their decendents up till the present day. I have nothing on James. I hope to connect them all to Matthias. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have seen very little on the Chitwoods from South Alabama. Please feel free to contact me at eighthofnine(a)cox.net
Thanks,
Chris Lynch
