Thank you so much for your assistance.There was another John Chizum who was killed Aug. 14, 1777, I think that's why the "Dec".the prvts. Samuel and William Cheezum were brothers to my John Chezem. I don't know the connection unless it was a father or another cousin with same name. I will send off for the information from the historical society.The John Chizmn on the pg. 23 of vol. 21 is probably mine because of the dates 1778-1779.He died at the age of 90 in Vermillion Co., Indiana with wife no. 4 and a couple of children still in his household.A relative has the deeds from Deleware to Maryland to Illinois to Indiana of course no wives are mentioned.
How valuable, or not, are genealogy books published and submitted to the DAR library as far as proof?I have some census records to back up some records.
