Amos Chaffin b.1768 Burke Co.,NC
I have Amos Chaffin b. 1768 Burke County, NC, He married Elizabeth Porter and they had 7children, of which 4 were male: Elijah,Elias, Joseph, and Amos (II). I can't seem to find and solid information about the parents or grandparents of Amos.I did have someone tell me that Amos' father was Joseph and was he was married to Mary Moore but no supporting documentation. I know the 4 boys, their families and Amos left NC about 1825 and went to Habersham County, GA and subsequently to Cherokee County, GA.,where Amos died.I have been able to track Elijah and Elias but Joseph and Amos (II)didn't leave much of a trail.
Absolutely any help you can offer concerning the parents of Amos (I) or the migration beyond Cherokee Co., GA of Joseph and/or Amos(II) would certainly be appreciated.
