I'm looking for information on the family of Silas and Sarah CHAMBERS. She and some of their children appear on the 1860 census at the Comanche Peak post office. Children were James, Silas, Henry, Asa, William, John, Job?, Susan Cassandra M-----, Emma Christian Rebecca. The elder Silas, the father, does not appear on any record I currently have. I know the family moved from Scott Co., MS, about 1854. They lived near JOhn and Sarah Wilson CHAMBERS who had also moved from Scott Co. Evidently the two men, Silas and John, were brothers. Several brothers stayed in MS. Emma Christian Rebecca married James Franklin HENDRICKS in 1868 in Kaufman Co. They lived several places, Kaufman Co. and Jones Co. were two, before he died in 1885 in Johnson Co., according to her Confederate Widow's pension application. I am interested in finding graves, if they exist, for Silas and Sarah CHAMBERS and James Franklin HENDRICKS. J.F. and E.C.R. are my gg-grandparents. SCM Chambers married (1) unknown BRANDON and (2) Samuel BEEMAN, probably in Kaufman Co.
