Recently, some folks have discussed the migration of earlier generations of their families to other states. If you think some of them stopped off in Norfolk, VA you may be interested in looking at the Norfolk History web site: _http://www.usgwarchives.org/va/norfolkcity/norfolkcitycem.html_ (http://www.usgwarchives.org/va/norfolkcity/norfolkcitycem.html) which has a new look. All of the cemeteries in Norfolk are listed on this site with the names of those buried in each. Unfortunately, there is no master list of names across all cemeteries. In my case I focused on Elmwood/Cedar Grove Cemetery and Forest Lawn where generations of the maternal side of my family are buried. I noticed over forty CANNON surnames and some HITCH names in these three cemeteries. There may be other Delmarva names there as well. And on a note of civic pride I encourage you to explore other features on Norfolk history at this site. George Bacon For Mike Hitch: Mike, Last year I found out that a Hitch family whom I have known must of my life here in Norfolk has Eastern Shore roots. **************Looking for a car that's sporty, fun and fits in your budget?

www.Genealogybank.com is great. They have a large number of Maryland newspapers and many are from the shore. The cost is $19.95 for a month or $69.95 for year. Other newspaper sites include: www.ancestry.com which has partnered with www.newspaperarchive.com - several Maryland titles www.paperofrecord.com - not many local titles and the OCR search results are not as good, but it is free http://www.aomol.net/megafile/msa/speccol/sc4800/sc4872/html/newspapers.html - The Maryland State Archives has put several papers online, but has no OCR search capability.

Jim, I'm really happy to have that extra information about the Laylor women. I've been wondering about them for awhile! Do you know the circumstances of Keziah's death? I realize that's a long shot. Can you tell me where you were able to find the information about their parents? I'd love to be able to source it. If I run across the source of my Mitchell/Patience "fact", I'll be sure to check it out further and share it with you. Who knows? Somebody had to be the mother of his children, and there were plenty of Kellams around at the time. :D Jennifer > Jennifer: > > I am pleased to forward the following information concerning the wives > of Mitchell Chandler. > > 78.

Jennifer: I am pleased to forward the following information concerning the wives of Mitchell Chandler. 78. Mitchell Chandler born ca. 1780 in Accomack County, Virginia, died 14 Jul 1851, married: 1st 8 May 1802 to Keziah Laylor, died 28 Dec 1802, daughter of Arthur Laylor and Elizabeth Kellam. 2nd 7 May 1803 to Susanna Laylor, died 8 Feb 1811, daughter of Arthur Laylor and Elizabeth Kellam. 3rd 12 Oct 1812 to Sarah Bull, died 15 Oct 1816, relict of Robert Bonwell, son of James and Betsey Bonnewell and daughter of John Bull, Sr. 4th 18 Mar 1817 to Susan R. Byrd born ca. 1798, died 13 Aug 1827, daughter of Ebern Byrd. Mitchell was the son of Mitchell Chandler and Patience Kellam. In your earlier report you stated that: 1. John Thomas Chandler married Martha Fitzgerald 2. Sylvester Chandler married Mary A. Kellam 3. Mitchell Chandler married Susan R. Bird 4. Mitchell Chandler married Patience Kellam (Not So..Wife is Unknown) 5. John Chandler married Patience Kellam 6. John Chandler married Joanna Taylor 7. John Chandler married Margaret Unknown. What I am saying is that lines 1 through 3 and line 5 through 7 are correct. Line 4 is incorrect. Mitchell did not marry a Patience Kellam. His wife remains Unknown. No! I am not a Chandler. I am an Eastern Shore researcher that enjoys writing about many various families suggested to me by my many friends and fellow researchers. Several years ago I did a paper on the Chandler family which I have considered publishing. The problem is specific family research is not conducive to enough book sales to make a project pay for itself. The only formula that seems to work for family books is publishing a Colonial Families book containing six to eight individual families. And I have no interest is doing such a project. I assume that Carson Fitzgerald Chandler is a son of John Thomas Chandler and Martha Fitzgerald, daughter of Thomas and Ann Fitzgerald. All of my projects a well documented and cited. Unfortunately when copying materials from my files, the text messaging used by many web sites including Lower Delmarva Roots does not permit the copying of the footnotes. Jim Revell -----Original Message----- From: lower-delmarva-roots-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:lower-delmarva-roots-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of jnesbitt2@washcoll.edu Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2008 3:24 PM To: lower-delmarva-roots@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [LDR] Chandler Family James, I do know that Mitchell the younger was married four times...the wives I have are Keziah Laylor, Susanna Laylor (those two marriages were only a year apart. Do you know if the two were sisters?) Susan (Sukey) Bird and Sarah (whose last name I do not have). I am descended from Mitchell and Susan, which is why I only gave Jane Susan's name. You say that Mitchell Chandler son of Mitchell Chandler and Patience Kellam married four times, but in your next paragraph you say that Mitchell Chandler son of John Chandler and Patience Kellam did NOT marry a Patience Kellam. Do you mean that the first Mitchell Chandler then was not the father of the second Mitchell Chandler? I am not at home at the moment and so don't have my file drawer full of notes with me, but I do NOT have a source on my online tree for the marriage of the second Mitchell to Patience Kellam. I will have to paw through my notes at home. I 'discovered' my lineage when my father passed all of his genealogy notes along to me, as well as the oral history (I myself am a Chandler, the last in our line. And unfortunately, not a boy as are neither of my sisters. The buck stops here.) My father and I both have done research the old fashioned way, through oral history combined with visiting courthouses and libraries to look for documents. I have tried to fill in, verify, and expand the information we have by doing work online, which I know is fraught with dangers and has resulted in wild goose chases, as well as interesting discoveries. Are you a Chandler, too? J.

I also have a direct Midgette and Smith line. I think everyone whose family has been in northeastern NC for more than 75 years is related to the Midgette's. Midgette is the spelling I use for all of that line regardless of what spelling a particular line adopted over the years. That's the way Capt. Matthew Midgette spelled his name.

James, I do know that Mitchell the younger was married four times...the wives I have are Keziah Laylor, Susanna Laylor (those two marriages were only a year apart. Do you know if the two were sisters?) Susan (Sukey) Bird and Sarah (whose last name I do not have). I am descended from Mitchell and Susan, which is why I only gave Jane Susan's name. You say that Mitchell Chandler son of Mitchell Chandler and Patience Kellam married four times, but in your next paragraph you say that Mitchell Chandler son of John Chandler and Patience Kellam did NOT marry a Patience Kellam. Do you mean that the first Mitchell Chandler then was not the father of the second Mitchell Chandler? I am not at home at the moment and so don't have my file drawer full of notes with me, but I do NOT have a source on my online tree for the marriage of the second Mitchell to Patience Kellam. I will have to paw through my notes at home. I 'discovered' my lineage when my father passed all of his genealogy notes along to me, as well as the oral history (I myself am a Chandler, the last in our line. And unfortunately, not a boy as are neither of my sisters. The buck stops here.) My father and I both have done research the old fashioned way, through oral history combined with visiting courthouses and libraries to look for documents. I have tried to fill in, verify, and expand the information we have by doing work online, which I know is fraught with dangers and has resulted in wild goose chases, as well as interesting discoveries. Are you a Chandler, too? J. > As I said, most of this data while very limited in scope is accurate. > However, Mitchell Chandler son of Mitchell Chandler and Patience Kellam > married four times.

As I said, most of this data while very limited in scope is accurate. However, Mitchell Chandler son of Mitchell Chandler and Patience Kellam married four times. Susan Bird was his fourth wife. She and Chandler were the parents of Sylvester Randal Chandler as reported. Mitchell Chandler son of John Chandler and Patience Kellam did not marry a Patience Kellam. Although I must confess that I do not know who he married as his wife is still a mystery. I am a bit curious as to how you discovered your lineage. Did you do your own research or did you find this data on line? I have approximately 150 pages of Chandler history and have shared most of this information freely with several Chandler researchers and others. -----Original Message----- From: lower-delmarva-roots-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:lower-delmarva-roots-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of jnesbitt2@washcoll.edu Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2008 2:30 PM To: lower-delmarva-roots@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [LDR] Chandler Family James, Could you tell me what the errors are?

(....or even just give me a hint. I do know that I am desperately trying to get my Patience Kellams straight, and am finding conflicting birth years for West Kellam who is most likely the father of the earlier Patience Kellam. Anyway, if you have any hints about reliable sources, that would be fantastic, and if you know anything further about my earliest John Chandler, any fact at ALL, I would be extremely grateful.)
