New World Chandlers
« on: Friday 15 February 19 16:26 GMT (UK) »
Wilts Notes & Queries Vol 1 published in 1894 talks of George & Jane Chandler who went to America in 1687 to escape persecution. There was the suggestion that they had come from Burbage. In volume V the subject was raised again but no more was heard and the series terminated in 1914. Can anyone add to this? Thanks, Toby.

Thanks Vimto,
I am staggered by what has been written in that link. Absolutely amazing.
It confirms my opinion that one should never brush aside family traditions no matter how unlikely things seem.
