Marriage Licenses - Live Oak, Florida

ChrstmasCarol — 5 Nov 2002 11:02:39 GMT

I have Marriage license copies for a Mark E. Chancy's marriage to Manarvy Lee in Suwanee County, Florida on Sept 3, 1880.

Also, on the bottom of a copy of my grandfather's, Augustus Chancy & Ella Ruth Starling, marriage license dated october 27, 1907 is a piece of the license for William S. Clark of Suwannee Co, Fl & Miss Jessie Ann Chancey. The date is not on the remnant of license on the bottom of the copy of my grandfather's license.

Samuel W. Chancey & Miss Elizabeth J. Shiver on January 3, 1881.

I have a copy of Leroy Chancey's marriage license from Suwannee County. It is dated February 20, 1910 to Miss Bretha N. Carroll. The marriage was performed by Levi Starling, O.M.S. This may be relevant historically as my grandfather's, Gus, first marriage was to Ella Ruth Starling.

Do any of you have an Andrew Chauncey? He married Nellie Sanders on December 28, 1922. Nellie was my grandmother's, Lizzie Gertrude Sanders, sister. Lizzie married Gus Chancey.

Don't know if any are of interest ... just passing along.

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.

Benjamin Hayes Chancey

charbmoore1 — 10 Apr 2005 12:00:03 GMT

Working on my husband's lines. His great great grandfather was Benjamin Hayes Chancey born 1864 and according to the 1930 census he claims to have been born in Massachusetts. I cannot find any Chauncey or Chancey to come close to this in that place or anywhere else in the US. I will give what I do know and would love if any of you have run into this guy in your research.
Benjamin Hayes Chancey b. 1864 d. 1954 in New Haven County, Connecticut.
He married Annie Pearl McClelland in Kemper County, MS. The family story is that he was passing through the area as an eye glasses salesman. Annie died in 1926. He is living there in 1930 with children Benjamin, Ella, William, Albert, John and Jettie? Son, John, moved to CT at some point and Benjamin was living with John when he died. I can offer some additional info on this family going forward if anyone recognizes any of this and can connect.

Mary L. Lintzenich — 11 Feb 2004 3:20:41 GMT

Oscar or anyone interested in cemeteries in Evansville, Indiana. I recently read an rticle from my sister written in Evansville that they were doing research on all the cemeteries and were going to use coroners, doctors, relatives, etc. to locate and find our more information for all burried there. They believe it will take a year before this is completed. Possibly more. And I believe they are going to have photos or information to locate the headstones and graves of those burried there. This would be a great thing for many people. Just type in Evansville Courier and the information will come up. Hope this helps anyone and everyone.

SC Chanceys

catherineshuman — 20 Feb 2003 1:09:46 GMT

Hi, I'm trying to trace my ancestry back to the first member of my family to come to America. Actually, I'm trying to prove an old family tale of two brothers who came to America together, one stayed in the North, stayed Chauncey, and one came to the South, became Chancey. My mother was Barbara Chancey of Jacksonville, FL. Her father was Warren Lott Chancey of Charlton Co., GA. Papa's father was Wade Lee Chancey of Charlton Co., GA, and Wade's father was Samuel J. Chancey of Appling Co., GA and is from his second marriage. Samuel J.'s father was Samuel Chancey of South Carolina, and this is where I run into a brick wall. I know that this Samuel or his father was the one to move my family to GA between 1790 and 1816. Any help would be welcome!!!!
