Bill, Found in Chronicles of Pitt County, North Carolina: Ransom CHAUNCEY md. Susan GAINER, dau. of Joseph GAINER, Jr. (b. ca 1776) and Elizabeth McKEEL. Susan GAINER's brother Joseph GAINER III, b. 1818, d. 1873, md. Harriet CHANCE, b. 1818, d. 1893, dau. of Thomas CHANCE, b. 1777. " Thomas Chance, whose lands joined the lands of Joseph Gainer and Samuel Little." _ Doris Little Wilson, Article #875, Chronicles of Pitt County North Carolina. "The Joseph Gainer home was just across the lane from the Little homeplace near Flat Swamp and the Martin Co. line." _ Doris Little Wilson, Article #875, Chronicles of Pitt County North Carolina. Ties to LITTLE and FLEMING families. * Interesting similarity in names CHAUNCEY and CHANCE. Wonder if it is the same faiily? Trish on 4/18/02 7:29 PM, Bill Kittrell at wbk99@earthlink.net wrote: > R.
