Jerry--Think I sent this by mistake--I have a new computer, and am not quite used to it, yet. But I wasn't finished so, I will continue. My John Sr. was the son of David Chambers who came to the U.S. from Scotland about 1743. He married a German woman, whose name I don't know. They did go to Orange Co, VA, but then on to N.C. John Sr. was born in Va ca 1748. He and his 4 brothers served in the Revolution. He married a Mary ? Their son, John Jr. was born in Rutherford Co, N.C. about 1789. There were other children. The family went to IN by way of KY where they spent some time, due to the age and poor health of David and his wife. Settled near Paris Crossing, where John Sr and Mary spent the remainder of their lives. John, Jr. migrated to MO about 1845. Since all these Chambers families were large, our Johns could have been connected somehow. If you find any connection, please let me know, as I have quite a lot of info on these families.
