Barry, In "Seven Genrations of Aquila and Thomas Chase" page 412 family 1073 Lists the following: 2378 Luke, born 25 Jan 1821; married 27 Nov 1851 Sarah Smith of Renfrewshire, Scotland born 10 May 1831. They lived in Lunenburg; they had nine children. It does not list the children. The line of assent is as follows: Luke Luke Chase,Bradford, Deacon Seth, Moses, Ens. Moses, Aquila. If this is your line I would be more than happy to copy these pages and send them to you. Just send me your name and address and I will get to them as soon as possible as I'm leaving for Salt Lake City Sunday for the birth of my great Granddaughter. Virginia Chase [email protected]

Ok sorry I haven't been heard from in a while. I've been pretty busy lately, I recently had a new grandson born, we had to pack him and mommy up a month early for NC. Seems that Son-In-Law was informed that he's going to be deployed to the middle east before the first of the year. So we hurried and got mom and baby packed and moved.Even though I've been quiet I've been watching and reading. I saw the hoax information that was posted but knowing the Chase list I figure they would just ignore it and someone would quietly email the poster and tell them of their mistake. Keith's right this List functions like a Family caring and helping. A reminder Please members DO NOT post those forwarded emails that say --don't drink this, Aol or Microsoft is tracking, If you forward this you will get money, or this child is sick and money will be donated. When you receive these emails go check them here---http://www.snopes.com/index.htm honestly do you know what these things are? They are ways of getting emails so you can get more spam mail and sometimes hackers use them to see if they can hack into your computers. People stop forwarding period, if you want to send something then do a copy and paste and then your not sending out all the emails again. Ok so that addressed the hoax postings. I'm sorry but I must had missed the religion, political & medical postings. On the political ones if they were the ones posted on 9/11 those will stand, they we're a way of healing. If postings are about our ancestors religion, political views and medical history those are Genealogy and can be posted. However I have never seem any racist remarks and I hope I don't see any of them on the Chase list. Addressing the personal email box thingy. We do have a member here that has problems with being able to receive personal email to his mail box and that is Keith Hume. In fact the email address I'm using is unable to get to him, lucky I have another one that will get to him. So we will have to over look this, however members if you are directing your message to Keith please either reply to his postings or put his name in the subject line. If you have any problems with this list Please address me with the problem and don't address the list. Doing so only cause's problems on the list. One last thing if you need to unsubscribe from the list then please follow these directions To unsubscribe send message to CHASE <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] If you are getting the digest just replace L- with D-. In body of message put only unsubscribe Remember that the Winter months are coming and that means the lists will get busier. Also if your going away for any time unsubscribe till you get back or your mailbox will get full. Thanks, Lisa Martin

Please remove me from the Chase listing for now. There is way to much being received by all members in regards to the "map" project. A good thought but getting overloaded with chatter. Thanks

Hi,Ellie, I may be a little dense,but after your message I am still not clear as to how you would like to see the information on this project presented. Like many working on our personal histories I started off thinking we were all searching for the same type of information When I first started my family research I was just interested in the HUME family but, inevitably, this broadened out to include the families the HUME's married into. One such was the CHASE family. So, again, inevitably, I started looking at the SHERMANs,the SIMMONS, the HATHAWAYs and so on. It was not until I attended "An Introduction to Family Research" lecture that the enormity of tracing ALL your ancestry was, if not impossible, a life's work and longer. We were asked to work out the number of our direct ancestors going back to the year 1100 and based on 30 years a generation. It worked out that, with no inter-marriage, and all ancestors being resident in England that the number exceeded the amount of people living in the country at that time in the 12th century. I rtherefore esolved to research what I considered the most "interesting lines", this of course sometimes means the easiest and, as half my ancestry was ex British colonial, I have concentrated on that not only because it is the easiest but it is also the most interesting. However on this long tortuous,frustrating but yet ultimately very rewarding quest I was helped,enormously, by those who were researching similar lines and some of those are or were members of this list. Also my CHASE line was the first really well documented line because of their early pioneering, and who of us can resist the thought of being descended from those who went to places they knew nothing about and suffered with fortitude many,many set-backs? ( It has always bemused me why so many Americans wanrt to trace their roots back to Ireland,Scotland, Wales and England For me the thought that my ancestors helped in the formation of 3 countries is uplifting. I have Irish and Scots ancestry but my American-Canadian-Australian are the ones I would like to think I could be like) I must tell you that I have gone as far as I feel I need to go with my CHASE research and am now doing this in an attempt to pass on some of the invaluable help I have received. I only have one regret and that is that it is one of the quirks of our research that tracing our lineage through our maternal side is so very difficult especially as I consider it to be the only true way to trace our roots. Therefore although I feel that Aquilla and Thomas CHASE were not "my" CHASEs, at least not directly, I have tried to spend some of my time helping others in their search. With your own family you have obviously done a magnificent job.

Well, Keith, here's the thing: Not all of us are in the business of mapping the whole family. I, for instance, have spent five years on my Courtrights and discovered that there are so incredibly many of them that I have no interest in mapping them. One guy I met is interested in mapping all the Ohio Courtrights, and that's Thousands! I admire his energy but it's Not my Interest. I inherited my great grandmother's diary, a dramatic work that I wanted my family to share. In it, she recorded three months of life in Princeton, NJ, while her husband was a theological student and she was managing a household with three tiny children. A great historical document from 1866, that includes mention of many letters written to her husband and the death of her baby. I wanted to find out where my great grandmother's letters to her husband were. So I had to look for her progeny. Perhaps they had inherited her letters, as I had inherited her diary. In the process, on the internet, I discovered a profoundly deaf, distant cousin who is a rigorous researcher of the earliest Dutch Courtrights in New York. She and I have become quite close and I have visited her in DC. And the fact is, our research turned up the brick wall beyond which Courtrights cannot be confirmed. I found that the progeny didn't have letters from my great grandmother because she moved around the country so much that they were lost. And I ended up with a great, good friend who has taught me a lot about about being deaf......These are the rewards of this endeavor. Nevertheless, I published the diary for my family, including photos of the family and my own illustrations of their life. I included an appendix of births and deaths, weddings and obituaries of this tiny branch of the Courtright family. And that was all I want to do. It was huge for me. Took years to do. And, through the Courtright web page [[email protected]], the diary has been published for everyone to read! That's more than I ever expected out of this five years of work! So, you see, I don't even want to know about the Kentucky Courtrights. Because I'm in search of the earliest Chases! Sincerely, Ellie Pelcyger

Hi,Sue, With regard to your suggestions they are all good and Ellie got me thinking about the migration. I have already mapped out a page as an example of my own details and will include the migration with each descendant. The Web site that converts Zip codes into actual locations sounds great so for those who wish to include their Zip Code I will add a link to the Zip Conversion site. Keep the ideas coming!

In this one lot there are numerous Chase & Kin;Randolph, Orange, Vermont. (Southview Cem.) I have not even checked out the Chase side of it, so have no idea from whence they came . There is: Irving S. Chase Jan 3, 1848- May 7, 1923 his wife Martha H. Daggett Feb. 28 1840- Apr. 28, 1924 B. B. Chase Born June 26, 1816 Died Mar 30 1892 (there is a small stone that says Benjamin, so maybe) Lydia Abbott wife of B. B. Chase Born Apr. 1, 1816 Died Mar 14, 1805 George B.

Wm L. & Betsy Harwood Died May 14, 1879 AE 19 yrs. 5 ms. (that is exactly what it said; two died same day, twins?????) Olive Chase Born Aug. 11, 18 ??? Died March 15, 1883 Most of the names are on this humongous monument, most have separate small stones with just first name. Go to my web page click on "Scenery" The photo was taken just to taken in some of the colours which have just begun here. Will try to get a photo of the whole CHASE lot sometime; looks like more than a double lot. <> Harriet M. Chase<> http://groups.msn.com/RandolphConnects

To the group. I received the following email from this lady in Australia. My reply is below. Almost from the day I joined this Group there have been those who not able to connect to William Aquilla and Thomas have assumed that this Group is for research on those Chase /Chace families only. This is certainly not true. I had people who have sent me emails saying they have not sent in what information the have to be included inthe Chase database because they have not yet established a connection to the 3 Chase mentioned !

I see you live in Australia and assume your close family immigrated there. I for one am interested. You probably know that I am Australian living in England. My Chase descendant,grandfather, went from Nova Scotia to OZ in 1860, (yes 1860) it was only by searching his history that we discovered our CHASE/Hume connections in America. As a result I have 6 letters written to my ancestors brother in Oregon telling of his story in Australia and of many social changes, and facts I never knew. The Chase Group is dominated by Americans but we really need people like yourself to add some further depth. Indeed there are some people joining this Group wheo think it is ONLY about William, who went to Aerica in 1630 and two possibly brothers possibly unconnected to William Over some time I have had many queries as to why there appear to be no researchers of English CHASE. Have you located any of your English Chase ancestors? ANY Chase from anywhere is of interest. It is on that basis I am allowed so much space on my surnameweb site, Keith Hume ----- Original Message ----- > >

Hi,Ellie, Thank you for your views. They really are most welcome. I am not sure how those who lived in the places you mention would know straight away that I had ancestors who lived in the places mentioned. However I believe it would not be too difficult to present the information in a lot of ways ALL of which could be used. For instance I have already decided that those seeking CHASE people in the U.S. would have a choice of seeing a table with those living there simply listing their names in alphabetical order, email, and State they lived in. Clicking on their name would take the enquirer to the details of that person OR going straight to a map of the US clicking on the Area they are interested in and then being presented with a list of those living there. Again clicking on the name would take them to the details of that person. So if I can fully understand how you would like to see the information and there is enough interest it would be no problem to also make that an option Perhaps I am not understanding just what you mean. Perhaps you could be more specific by using your own family as an example of what you would like to see. I am also somewhat puzzled about your nor being interested in Kentucky Courtrights? How do you know they are not another branch of your family and may have information that could assist you maybe leading you further back to your roots, unless you already know them., Keith ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, October 14, 2002 12:01 AM Subject: [CHASE-L] Re: Image Mapping project. > Kieth wrote: > "For instance mine started in England then MA, RI, back to MA then New > Brunswick then Nova Scotia then Australia and here am I back in England. > Surely it is far better that I state this from one location...Mine?" > > Well, not necessarily far better, since those who were interested in Chases > who had lived in MA, RI, NB, NS or Australia would know right off that you > were to be contacted and those who were only interested in Chases who lived > in Florida wouldn't contact you.

Keith, In my OPIONION :-D it would be beneficial to give other locations besides were we currently reside. I live in NY state, have been here for 13 years, and NONE of my Chases ever resided in NY (oophs, my great-aunt taught in Jamestown, NY for a couple years while she wast teaching.) This project can serve 2 purposes (and many more I am sure.) 1) To share information and connect lines - find cousins? 2) To assist each other when possible with local resources. For the first purpose we could list: 1) Our "lineage" for example: Oscar (8), Abel, Jr(7), Abel (6), Ezekiel (5), Roger (4), Thomas (3), Thomas (2), Aquilla (1). 2) Their migration: MA(circa 1640)> Maine > Meigs County, OH(1817). For the 2nd: Country, state/province/etc, maybe even county. In the US, there is some pattern to the issuing of zip codes. They start in the NE working south and west. Though neighboring towns do not necessarily have numbers that are consecutive. The basic zip code is 5 numbers long and there is one for each postal office. With the extended code (four additional numbers) it can narrow it down to the street, building or even an office. Here are two sites that can take zip codes and translate them into localities. http://www.usps.com/ncsc/lookups/lookup_ctystzip.html http://www.getzips.com/zip.htm Sue Edwards NY (but born and raised a Buckeye) --- KEITH HUME <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi,Ellie, > Thank you for your views.

Hi Lonnie, Please remove me from the Chase mail list. Or, please tell me how I can remove myself. Thanks! Stephen Chase (Fredericton, NB Canada)

Kieth wrote: "For instance mine started in England then MA, RI, back to MA then New Brunswick then Nova Scotia then Australia and here am I back in England. Surely it is far better that I state this from one location...Mine?" Well, not necessarily far better, since those who were interested in Chases who had lived in MA, RI, NB, NS or Australia would know right off that you were to be contacted and those who were only interested in Chases who lived in Florida wouldn't contact you. The difference is in narrowing the search. I have found in my search for Courtrights that none of my line lived in the South for longer than a few winters, whereas the early ones, who were more difficult to narrow down, moved from NY to PA to OH. That track represents a thread common to certain Courtrights and helped me to narrow my search. When I receive mail from Courtright-L about Courtrights in Kentucky, I don't read 'em. However you decide to do it, I found the Chase website very good for research and I believe that any map is a great idea. Nice talking with you! Sincerely, Ellie Pelcyger

Keith and other listers: Please include me IN the map project. Jeanne T. Lane San Jose, CA

Firstly, we now have 81 interested parties so the project is Ok . However please do not send me any of your information until I request it which will be after the format is finalised Secondly there are still some people who have signed up but are not sure what they are signing up to. The basic idea is to have a register of Chase/Chace researchers but to include a graphical illustration as to where individuals live. I feel it is important that we do this as the facility to register your details on my Chase/Chace www site is now non functional. and also I believe it is in all our research interests to have some idea where we each live. The idea was to present a map,(online) of each country where those interested reside I have been told by surnameweb that I can have plenty of Server Space for the project. I would be most pleased to hear ANY other suggestions that are both logical and technically possible. ( Free your creative instincts!) The following is my first thoughts on the working of this project This map would only show the States or Counties of that country Clicking a particular State or County you will then be presented with a Table of those who live there. The Table will show A) Name of person---- B) Email address--- and, AS AN OPTION, a column showing the Town , or nearest, to where they live. Clicking on the Name, A), will show the details that person wishes to display. The information will be in "Free Form" although I think it may be less confusing to making the information more uniform in content such as: 1) Research interests, This should be confined to your CHASE/CHACE line 2) Other families you are interested in 3) If you are prepared to help, even in a small way, with anyone researching some of the lines you are also looking at or who may need help in finding where to look at archives in your area( NOT necessarily offering to visit those archives.) or perhaps doing look-ups. 4) OPTIONAL--Something about your ancestors or family 5) Links to your own Web Site if you have one. This could be done in 1) Research Interests. One suggestion I have received was the use of Zip or Post Codes. I am not sure how that works other countries but here in the UK a Post or Zip code can cover a small area such as 12 houses in one street. Also the whole of the UK has been mapped on the Internet at Multimap.com and simply entering the code and clicking or hitting return you are shown a detailed map showing the area requested. If the US,Canada, Australia have similar facility I would be interested to hear if anyone is in favour of this Finally where anyone has presented a lot of info they will have their own Web page and where the information is minimal then they will share a page with others but by clicking on the Name they will go directly to the section requested. I hope this clarifies matters somewhat, Keith

You can count me in. Donna Dunham Jones

Hi Keith, Seems to me that it would be important to, in some manner, identify the line of Chases that one descends from. What I mean is that this should be done "upfront" as soon as possible in the "clicking" squence. It would, in my opinion, facilitate the searching process and minimize the time spent. Maybe the "Tables" of those that live in that State or County could be separated into three (or more) categories, such as 1)William1 "the Immigrant", 2) Aquilla & Thomas, and 3) not yet determined. This way it would be easier to find and communicate with people researching your same line. Food for thought. Jim in California

I will participate in the mapping project. Nancy Welch
