Our ancestor, John Chandler, spent most of his adult life in Elizabeth City County, Virginia. He was associated with many families in that county and surrounding counties and some of them were related to his descendants. I am compiling a list of these collateral surnames and will be posting further information on them in the future primarily using the Virginia Historical Index as a guide as I did in the first entry. To see the entries please refer to “ References to Chandler and Related Families in the Virginia Historical Index”. Use the codes in brackets after the surnames listed here to find the entries within that article.
