Surnames: CHANDLER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/iUI.2ACIB/1964.1 Message Board Post: Debra, I did a quick search and located one NEVADA CHANDLER, age 5, in Henderson Co. KY. in the 1880 census. She is listed as the dtr of H.M. Chandler,age 36, and wife Mary,age 38, with siblings Genoa, female, age 8, and (looks like) Kendall, male, age 13. The occupation of the father is given as "hosiery mill" it looks like. All family members are born in KY. Considering her age and the location, I tend to believe this is the Nevada in question. Another NEVADA CHANDLER is listed in the 1930 census for Morgan Co. Illinois. Just looking at the ages it could be the same one, 50 years later, except that it says she was born in Missouri, as well as her parents. This one is an inmate in the Jacksonville State hospital for the Insane, and it states she is single. I can find no information on Bluford except for the marriage info. I hope this helps, and wish I could find more for you. If you happen to run across IRICK CLAY CHANDLER, please let me know! I've been searching for the longest time! Good luck. Lois
