This particular article is based on the memoirs of Vera Chamberlin Lane, and is a detailed history of the Chamberlins of Vermont, who arrived in Cattaraugus county in the early 1800s. The article is extensive, but I cannot transcribe it here because Sandpumpings is still under copyright. It contains numerous photos; including Ira Chamberlin and his wife Susan Farwell; Cornelius "Neil" Goodenow Chamberlin & his wife Hulda Densmore Chamberlin; Erastus Chamberlin; Wales Chamberlin, & Hazen Chamberlin. Some of the surnames included in the article are: Jackson, White, Lane, Priest, Brown, Goodenow, Spencer, Farwell, Kelly, Cannon, Grover, Reid, Densmore, Corthwell, Cook, Osmun, Sima, Odell, Carpenter, Pettengill. If you would like a copy of this article, please let me know and I will be happy to send it to you (no charge). It is so well done and deserves to be read by as many as possible.
