Dear Listers,
I'm researching Chaloners. I hava a Samual Chaloner 1748-1825, married to
Ann Meredith
Children were: Samual b.1791
m.1827 to Sarah Parry at Clyro, Radnorshire
Peter b.1795
m. Arabella ?
Richard b.1801 at Clyro
m.Mary Porter in Cheshire Eng.
Richard and Mary's children:
Arabella b1827 at Cheshire Eng.
m. ? Hewitt
Isabella b. bef.1831 in Cheshire Eng.
m. William Scott
Llewellyn b. 1831 in Hay-on-Wye
Leonidis b. 1833?
Richard, Mary and Family immigrated to America 1855 or earlier settling in
Ontario Canada. They may have entered Canada via the U.S. as Samuals wife
died in Cleveland Ohio, which would suggest that at least two brothers of
this family immigrated.
This family would have been protestant I think. I would be most grateful to
recieve any information on this family as I believe The Chaloner name is
quite historic in Wales. I would also appreciate any insight into why a
family such as this would leave Wales for an uncertain future in a savage
land like early Canada.
Thanks, Sheila
