    1. [CHASE-L] Chesham Chases
    2. [cc: CHASE-L w/o attachment] Keith, I am attaching a GEDCOM (Chesham.zip) that contains all the Chesham Chases listed in the Chesham section of Chase/ Chamberlain's "Descendants of Aquila and Thomas", 1928. It includes the identified descendants of the three sons of Thomas (b. 1520) down through two or three generations.  I hope that the "notes" that I have included for some of the individual records transmit to your file OK, since they are a useful part of the individual's information.  (This replaces the OldChase.zip GEDCOM that I sent to you yesterday which had  errors in it, and which should be deleted forthwith.)  Please note the three initial individuals that I include in this tree: a Thomas b. abt 1430, a John b. abt 1455, and a Matthew b. abt 1486.   I have seen unverifiable references to these three (they are NOT included in the Chase/Chamberlain lineage) in  several files (probably copied from each other...) in my wanderings, but I am highly suspicious of them since the names mirror the next three (confirmed) individuals in the line, and I have encountered a file (which appears to be LDS in source !) which attributes offspring of the later verified Matthew back to the early one.   I keep them in my Chesham Chase file (with an attached warning note) only as a "possible maybe".   You may wish to simply delete them.
