    1. [McCANN] Chamberlain/Parsons/McCann/Hatfield
    2. I have a picture of a "Mrs. William Chamberlain" from Michigan. I think she is: Caroline (nee ??) Chamberlain, b. 1834-ish. William was b. 1834, d. 1901. William was probably was in the Mi legislature in about 1869 and then was Warden of the Jackson State Prison, Jackson, MI until his death. They had several children: those with descendants are below and all were born in Berrian County, MI. Alice b. 1858, m. James Harvey Hatfield (b. 1856 in IN). they had one son, James Chamberlain Hatfield. He married Grace Clark and they had Jean Hatfield, b. 1911. Big names in Kalamazoo from what I can gather. James and Grace divorced after he was caught cashing a bad check/fraud, something. Lucy F. b. 1866, m. Frederick A. Parsons, b. 1860 in Fairfield Co., CT. They moved there and had William C. b. 1892, Florence C. b. 1896 and Fred, Jr. b. 1901. I think Fred Jr. had a Fred A. III. I can't find much on the other children. Carrie E. b. 1870, m. Dr. Ethelbert C. McCann b. 1867 in MI. They moved to the Chicago area. They had one daughter, Elizabeth C. McCann. b. 1894 in IL. William Oliver b. 1872, mar. Josephine Supple b. 1875. They had Alice Chirstine b. 1898. Lived in the Kalamazoo area and Alice may have gone to Wells College in NY. High society from what I could gather. Benjamin Ralph b. 1882 and married Madeline ? b. 1885. They had a daughter, Caroline b. 1919. Probably lived in the Jackson area. I would love to hand this picture over to a family member if one can be found. Janet Buchanan Phoenix
