This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/AUI.2ACIB/236.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I assume you are referring to Richard(1) Chamberlain of Braintree, one of the five original Chamberlain immigrant ancestors in New England, mentioned by me in my Ancestry.com Chamberlin Message Board posting #239.1.
