There are four of this name mentioned in our early records. Samuel, who took the oath in 1668, Thomas, John, and William. Of only two of these has the writer any details, and their relationship to each other is not known to him. "William Shaddock, or Chadwick, removed from Monmouth to Burlington County. He is said to have been the father of John, of Springfield, who died about 1694, having married, 5-10-1688, Elizabeth Light. She married, secondly, in the following year, John Dickson. "John Shaddock, or Chadwick, married a girl whose given name was Johanna. Their son John (1713-1783), by his wife, Martha A., was father of Francis Chadwick, 1741-1809, who married Huldah Tabor. The son of this couple, Tabor Chadwick, was a lawyer of Red Bank. He was born 3-7-1773, and died, 10-7-1843. His wife was Deborah Longstreet, born 7-25-1787, died 9-14-1883. They were the parents of twelve children and were ancestors of the well-known pilot of the Sea Bird and the Magents, Captain Joseph Chadwick." p200; "Francis Masters took the Oath of Allegiance in 1668. In 1675 he took up, under the Grants and Concessions, 240 acres in Shrewsbury. He died about 1684, leaving a wife, Mary, and children---Clement, Pauline (Poolemah), Mary, and Cohus Vogdon. Of these Clement and Pauline must have been of age before 1675, for in that year they took up head-lands of 60 acres each. Clement Masters was presented by the Grand Jury, September 1689, 'for playing nyne pins on the First day.' The name was usually written Le Maistre in the earlier records, and shows the family to have been of French extraction." ____________________________________________________________ CHAMBERS Would you see if you have any entries in your church records for John Chambers or his children: John Chambers, Elizabeth Le Coney, Martha Jones, Ann, Rebecca Walker. My gr gr grandfather was named John Talbot Chambers b PA 1765; the Chambers of Chester (if my family would be a couple generations earlier.) John Chambers (Patriarch of the family left a will 1749 Chester). I am also interested to learn if there were any Chambers who may have been members of a church which John Talbot pastored. I cannot find a connection with Talbots anywhere to explain the origin of his name.

I cannot find a connection with Talbots anywhere to explain the origin of his name. RESPONSE Since there were no Chambers in my Mon. Co. church records, I am going to assume you were referring to Burl. Co, where there are Chambers records. Very few of these entries are pre1765. I cannot tell, from your letter, if the first mentioned John Chambers is one and the same with J.T. Chambers. b.1765. Therefore I have no idea if these records are in the proper time span. However, there are not that many entries, so I will copy and send all. "EARLY CHURCH RECORDS OF BURLINGTON COUNTY, NEW JERSEY," by Charlotte Meldrum is all Quaker records and there are no Chambers mentioned in the records of that book. Hope some of it helps. Cannot answer your Talbot question. Check the wills to see if a connection is mentioned.

Descended from the Chasey family which was in Middletown Twp in mid-1700s. Any reference to them in "The Story of Middletwon"? Thanx for checking, RESPONSE "THE STORY OF MIDDLETOWN," by Ernest W. Mandeville, Rector of Christ Church, Middletown. Published by Christ Church, Middletown, NJ I can find no Chasey family members mentioned in the general history text of this book. The good news is that this book contains cemetery inscriptions from the old local cemeteries and in them I did find a few Chasey family members. The Baptist Church Burying Ground "The stones are all modern ones, and the yard which encircles the church is nearly full." pg.133 Julia Ann Chasey, wife of David Vanschoick, born March 27, 1796, died Sept. 8, 1877. George Chasey, son of John and Elizabeth, died Oct. 14, 1839, aged 42 yrs, 1mo., 4 days. Elizabeth, wife of John Chasey, died July 27, 1854, aged 78 yrs, 3 mo., 2 days. John Chasey, died March 5, 1846, aged 74 yrs., 7 months, 5 days. These were all I could find in this book. [NOTE: one must consider the date this book was written (unknown, but probably late 1800s-early 1900s)to fully appreciate the term "modern" in the context. :)] I looked elsewhere, and found one entry in "OLD TIMES IN OLD MONMOUTH," by Edwin Salter & George Beekman. pg 306 Dec. 16th 1793--The name Anna Chasey appears on a list of members of the Baptist Church of Middletown. ____________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________
