Seeking information about and descendants of William S. CHANDLER, born about 1807 SC and wife Mahala (born about 1819 GA). This couple lived in Simpson Co. MS in 1850 and 1860 with children (all born MS): John K., Eliza, Wade, Bummater/Benton, Martanda/Arteaneasey, Mary A., and Jesse. I am particularly interested in knowing if Mahala Chandler's maiden name was McWILLIAMS and if she is a sister to my gg grandfather Miles B. McWILLIAMS. Would be grateful for any information. Other CHANDLERS who lived in Simpson Co. MS in 1850 included John (born ca1789 SC); Joseph L. (born ca1820 MS); Jesse A. (born ca1817 SC); William (born ca1781 SC); William B. (born c1805 SC); and some younger ones born in MS. Please reply by e-mail to [email protected] (and many thanks for your help!).
