William Chandler, b. 20 Feb 1717/1718, d. 28 Feb 1795, son of William and Ann Bowater Chandler. Wm Sr b. 1678 in England, d. 1746 in London Grove Twp, Chester Co, PA. Wm Jr. m. 1756 to Rebecca Allen, b. 8 Aug 1722 in East Fallowfield Twp, Chester Co and d. 12 Jul 1799. Rebecca was dau of John and Amy Cox Allen, and had been married first to Alexander Mode on 18 Apr 1741. Alexander d. 1751. My file lists five children of Wm and Rebecca: Joseph, b. abt 1757, Allen b. 1759 - d. 1837, Thomas, William and Rebecca. I have Joseph's two marriages, but no further data on him. Allen m. Sarah Pyle, Thomas m Ann Lamborn, William m. Rebecca Winder and Sarah Harnes or Haines. I can't locate my source right now, but think London Grove MM connection is very good.

The family seems to start with my 5greats grandfather William CHandler, probably married to Rebecca Allen Mode, then his son Joseph CHandler married to 1) Kizziah Varnum and later to 2) Eleanor (Ellen) Caples in London Grove, Chester, PA in 1788. Joseph and family lived in Baltimore, MD for a few years, then Joseph eventually took the family to Ohio and was one of the first white settlers in the Mohican area of Ohio in 1812. His obituary lists him as a Quaker. I've wondered if he could have been a member of London Grove Meeting? Thanks! Becky Martin-Scull
