  • Name Edmund CHANDLER  [1
    Gender Male 
    Death Between 04 Apr 1715 and 28 Sep 1717  [1
    Notes 
    • Note: I originally had Nathan Chandler, b. 1700, as the son of Edmund and Elizabeth Alden. I have removed him for this reason - according to "Mayflower Families through 5 generations; vol 16, John Alden"
      Elizabeth Alden was born probably at Duxbury, probably not before Sept. 1673 (her parents were married in Dec. 1672); died between 21 Feb. 1738 and May 2, 1757 (deed and probate of husband's will).
      She married first, Edmund Chandler, son of Joseph and Mercy Chandler, who died between 20 May 1715 and 28 September 1717 (account of laying out of highway and deed acknowledgement).......
      Elizabeth (Alden) (Chandler) West left no probate. Although claims have been made that Edmund and Elizabeth (Alden) Chandler had children, no evidence exists for any children, with one possible exception. The John Chandler named as a grandson in Joseph Chandler's will, might have been a son of Edmund. Howeber, no further records of this John Chandler have been found and the property he inherited from his grandfather has not been traced.
      Evidence that no children of Edmund Chandler survived is found in the lack of any guardianships or division of the property of Edmund Chandler by the probate court and the fact that his widow remarried and sold off most of Chandler's property without needing any division or quit claim from other heirs.
