Here you will find information on three branches of Chaffinch Families that I have been working on. I have named them John, William, and Charles.

John begins with John Chaffinch whose will was recorded in Caroline County, Maryland in 1796.

William begins with William Chaffinch who was born about 1817 and is recorded in Caroline County censuses. As yet, no connection has been made to the previously mentioned John.

The third begins with Charles who is recorded in Baltimore records around 1800 to 1810. I have not definitively connected Charles to the decendants shown but because of the locations in which they were found, I have assumed these were his decendants. Also, I have not been able to connect Charles to the John or William lines.

These pages have been created using the free software program provided by the Church of Latter Day Saints. You can download the software by going to the www.familysearch.org website. This software allows me to take the data that I have and export it into a GEDCOM file. If you check the documentation for your family tree software, it is likely that you can import GEDCOM files. This would be an easy way for you to reproduce what I have created.

As with any of this information, if you know or find evidence that is contrary to what I have, I would appreciate it if you would notify me.

Here are the Trees:

I have researched the Denton Journal and created a file of extracts from that paper as it applies to the Chaffinch families. To review those click here.

In the future I will be adding other documents and will list those as soon as they are posted.
