To all those old and new to this site, would you kindly please review all of the following information, particularly the third generation to see if anyone looks familiar? Just three generations down, there is a Van Ransler Chase who married a Sophronia Etta Garner. Van and Sophronia had 23 children...yes that is NOT a typo...my great-grandmother really gave birth to 23 children. How many actual pregnancies is unknown. The problem I am running into however is that with 23 children you would think there would be an awful lot of offspring out there...and I can't find any except for my grandfather, Lesco. Can someone please help me? Someone out there MUST be related. I would appreciate any information. I would especially like to find out the true parents of Frederick Chase. We don't know for sure what role Mathias plays in the family picture.
