This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Chandler, Collins Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/iUI.2ACIB/1059.1 Message Board Post: Alford Alvin Chandler is also my ggggrfather. The 1880 census has him listed as living in Owingsville, KY. It states he was born in KY, father born in what looks like "Va/Ky" and mother from VA. It gives his age as what looks like 54, making him born in 1826. It is all kind of hard to read because it looks like the edge of the page may have gotten wet. That is about all I have on him but I have a lot on his descendents that I would be happy to share with you.
