Their daughter Louisa Chamberlain born 1825 Byron NY married John Carpenter and lived Ogle County, Illinois. Their daughter, Harriet Carpenter married Virgil E.Reed the son of Lyman Reed and Mehitable Clark the latter went to Ogle County Illinois around 1838 from New Hampshire. Especially hoping to find parents of Major Chamberlain and his birth place in Vermont. Major and Elizabeth Chamberlain still living in 1880 census at Nashua, Ogle Co., Illinois ~ maybe death record here?
