I'm searching for the PARENTS of Alvin Orlando Chancey/Chancy b:7/7/1876 in AL, D: 5/1/1947 in Westville, FL. His grandfather, Matthew Chancey, was awarded guardianship of him at 16 years of age by the AL Probate Court in Coffee County on 11 Jan 1896. His grandmother was Martha nee Wade. Alvin Orlando, aka Lander, went on to marry Minnie Ola (Mineola) McKenzie in Jun of 1898 and had seven children: Alvin Lee, Sherman Wesley, William Obie, Emma Jean, George Harris, Mildred Alcey, and Roberta.

Matthew Chancey b: abt 1830 Houston Cty, GA, married abt 1854 Martha Wade b: 1835. They had 5 children: Harriet b: 1855; William M. b: 1858, Susan L. b: 1860, Dona b: 1868, Ellen D. b: 1868.

I have not been able to locate Lander on any census records before 1900. Family members that remember him say he would never talk about his parents.

HELP!!
