Given the mention of at least two men named Shadrack Chandler in the Monroe-Brown County,
IN, area, I have to ask about my Shadrack Chandler. I have a Shadrack Chandler, born abt
1847, the son of James Chandler and Elizabeth Dover (or Dewar) Chandler. Shadrack was one
of 8 children: Elizabeth, born Feb. 1840; Zephania, born abt 1851; Joshua, born abt 1839;
Benjamin, born abt 1835; Sally J., born abt 1837; Minerva, born abt 1843; and James, born
abt 1847. Elizabeth is my direct ancestor; she married Will James Alexander in 1866. I
believe James Chandler was born abt 1791 in Virginia and died before 1860 in Brown County,
IN. His wife Elizabeth Dover/Dewar, was born about 1808 in Kentucky and died before 1870,
probably in Brown County, but possibly in Monroe County, IN. Birth dates are
approximations from census records.
Does this family fit in with any of the ones under current discussion? I would love to
know more about them, especially James and Elizabeth.
Thanks!
