Gavin,
Thank you for the information. My Elijah did move to Iowa in about 1854. I found this in a history of Jefferson County, Pennsylvania from 1915:
"The Chitesters are of English origin, and early generations of the family in this country are found in New Jersey, from which state some of the members served in the Revolutionary War. The great-grandfather of Clarence Clark Chitester was a native of New Jersey, and one of his sons, William, was with Commodore Perry in the Battle of Lake Erie. Another , Daniel, was the grandfather of C.C. Chitester."
Clarence Clark Chitister b. 1861 was the son of David b. 1833 , son of Daniel b. 1808.
Do you know if Andrew had a son William?
Thank you again for your help.
Paula
