Romanty Chase b. 3/18/1837 d.9/22/1894 in Kittery Maine Who were his parents? In the 1860 census, Romanty was 23 and living next door to Joanna Chase (she was 58) in Kittery. Joanna was m. to Thomas Chase (Thomas, Rev. Josiah, Dea. Thomas, Thomas, Aquila) per "Seven Generations." Joanna petitioned for administration of Thomas's estate in 1832. There were 2 children: Thomas & Joshua. Romanty seems to have been born too late to be the child of Joanna & Thomas. However, the land he later owned appears to be the same land Joanna received from her husband's estate but I have not been able to find any transfer from Joanna to Romanty. Romanty and his wife, Catherine Redmond, had 3 children: Willis m. Margaret Doyle, Annie m. Homer Gunnison, and Charles M.S. Chase who was living in Lynn, Mass. in the 1920's. Is there anyone with any knowledge of this family? Finding Romanty's parents has been my brick wall for years and it's driving me crazy! Thanks. Mary Jo in Dover, NH
