My grandfather had research done on his father's line back in 1940's, believe that was about the time he started looking into his family history, I don't know who did the research for him, and I am trying to find out what of his research is accurate and what is mistaken. His father's line, from his research goes back to Rhode Island and linked up with the Chase line when his 3rd great grandfather married Rebecca Chase. The information I have is as follows: Nathan Parce (Pearce) born 1768 died about 1843 married Rebecca Chase born 1769 died ? 6 children born: Benoni Parce, Nathan Parce, Jr., Ransom Parce, Royal Parce, John Parce and Justis Parce (Don't know what order of birth) but Benoni was first born Rebecca's parents were Nathan Chase Abigail Milk b. 1723 Tiverton R.I. b. Abt 1725 d. 1806 Hoosick Falls NY grandparents: Phineas Chase Desire Wing b. 2/3/1699-1700 b. 2/3/1698-99 d. 5/1761 Pookeepsie on Hudson NY great grandparents: Abraham Chase Elizabeth ??? b. 1650 Yarmouth, Mass d. Bef. 5/11/1738 Tiverton, RI 2nd great grandparents: William Chase, Jr. Abigail Hale b. 6/15/1621 Rogate, England d. 2/27/1684-5 3rd great grandparents: William Chase, Sr. Mary Townley (?) b. 1595 Sussex, England d. 1659 Yarmouth, Mass. 4th great grandparents: Aquila Chase Martha Sarah Jellison b. 8/7/1580 Hundrich, England b. 1582 d. 8/29/1670 d. 8/15/1643 5th great grandparents: Richard Chase Joan Bishop b. 7/23/1542 b. abt 1545 d. 1/31/1610-11 6th great grandparents: Thomas Chase Elizabeth Bowchiew b. 4/22/1520 b. abt 1518 d. 6/26/1586 d. abt 10/1/1569 7th great grandparents: Matthew Chase Elizabeth Bould b. 1486 Hundrich, England d. ? 8th great grandparents: John Chase Alice Harding b. ? d. ? 9th great grandparents: Thomas Chase ??? b. ? d. ? >From your e-mail report on The Chase Family History by J. M. Seaver, I am wanting to be sure information I have from my grandfather is correct. The information he had on Nathan Parce (Pearce)'s line was found to have at least one error in parentage, and I am still trying to straighten out that side of the line. If anyone has information on this branch of the Chase family, I would really appreciate hearing from you. And if anyone has Rebecca Chase and Nathan Parce in their line I really would love to get together with you to see what I can uncover on the Pearce line. It appears that Nathan was born Pearce, but census records somehow changed the name to Parce, and that is how it continued on my line since then. I have Pearces back from Nathan 4 generations, and then it stops. My grandfather's information gave the incorrect parental line before that and I would love to find parents of Nathan's great great grandfather, John Pearce, born abt. 1616 in Wales married Mary ? and died 4/26/1692 in Prudence, Portsmouth, RI. Would appreciate any help. Holly M. Snead 5761 Bethel Road Clermont, Ga. 30527
