Julia, I think Malissa Ann Chauncey, b abt 1841 IL, was a sister of our Francis Chancy, b 1822 IL. We are pretty sure Israel and Lydia are Francis' parents. What concerns me is that they had 6 children between 1814- 1825, then there was a 10 year gap and they had 4 more children between 1835-1841. Do you have any more on this family? We may find the cousin connection one of these days. We KNOW we are related to Israel's father Roswell through dna testing. We have a perfect match with a family in Florida.
