Posted on: Chowan County NC. Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Chowan/825 Surname: Chambers, Smith, Jones, Liles ------------------------- I am looking for information on Samuel Chambers from Chowan Co. His estate papers list his wife as Temperance Jones Chambers. Henry Smith is the adminstrator of his estate.Samuel married Temperance in 1833 and they had a daugher, Penelope, in 1835.Samuel died in 1837 and Temperance married Alfred Smith in 1838, they had a daughter, Adaline in 1839 or 40. I believe that Henry Smith was married to Samuel's daughter by a first marriage,Caroline Chambers in 1834, and they had 2 sons. Henry married again in 1839 so Caroline must have died.Henry married Martha Liles in 1839. Henry died before 1850. Martha is listed in the 1850 census as head of household with 5 boys, 2 of which were born before 1839. Penelope marrried Wm.Blount and Adaline married West R. Leary. Both died at an early age. Temperance Smith married Jerimiah Floyd after Alfred Smith died about 1845. If anyone can add to this info I would appreciate it.
