Today's featured relative in my database is my maternal 8th-great grandmother, Martha Taylor.
Martha was born January 17, 1701/02 in Virginia (probably Orange Co.), the daughter of James and Martha (Thompson) Taylor. Martha was married circa 1722 to Thomas Chew, son of Larkin and Hannah (Roy) Chew. Thomas was born circa 1700 Virginia and died in 1782.
Martha comes from the Taylor family that includes President Zachary Taylor.
Known children of Thomas and Martha (Taylor) Chew are as follows :
i. Joseph Chew b. 1725 Virginia, d. ca. 1800 Canada m. Grace Deshon
ii. Larkin Chew b. 1727 Virginia, d. 1796 Virginia
iii. Frances Chew b. 1730 Virginia, d. 1784 m. Henry Downs
iv. Hannah Chew b. ca. 1731 Virginia

Do you have any documentation proving the names of Andew & Ann [Barthos] Chew's children? I descend from their son Thomas and I need proof of their connection for my supplemental application to the DAR. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I posted on Genforum some information I found about Nathan Beals and Elizabeth Chew. You may already have this, but if not, hope it adds to your tree.
