Chase Family Research

I traveled to the beautiful town of Warner, New Hampshire in search of Jacob Chase and his descendants.

The Chase Surname is prominent in Warner Town History. I found much that I have to sort through, including a mystery. There was a letter to the Historical Society thanking them for the information for on Jacob Chase and his adopted son of Alonzo Chase. So the search is on for his birth parents. A trip to Hopkinton, New Hampshire Historical Society might answer a few questions.

Ancestral Journey

I will be posting my journey while searching for my ancestors.

I think you will find the search interesting. Some of the people will be just your "Average Joe" type, while others are a little more colorful. Some will be relatives. A few will not be related,but I found the story interesting and thought you might like it. Please join me in my Ancestral journey down memory lane of my family.

The surnames I will be following are Stearns, Nelson, Chase and Fletcher. All four ancestors arrived in the Massachusetts Bay Colony during the Great Migrations during 1630-1638. Tradition has it that Isaac Stearns arrived on the Arbella. The ship of Winthrop's Fleet carrying the Massachusetts Bay Colony Charter.

See you next time with my first antidote of history.
