David was a Civil War veteran, 1st NY Dragoons. They did indeed have a large family. The oldest child was Lewis Grant Chandler (1868-1941). This information is all from cemetery, census, and Civil War pension records. I have Lewis Grant Chandler as being married to Laura Rew. I have Laura's parents as Edgar and Mary Rew. I have their son as Clarence Chandler (1898-1940)I have a very hard to read (fuzzy scan) obituary from the internet for Clarence Chandler from 1940 stating birth and death dates and giving parents as Laura Rew Chandler and Lewis G. Chandler. Census records would indicate that Lewis and laura did not always live together, but i don't know if they were divorced.
