http://members.aol.com/AASCRoom2/1868voterregSumter.htm
The 1868 Voter registration is arranged by county, then by registration precinct and then alphabetically by polling precinct. Names are listed alphabetically by the first letter of the surname, with whites and African Americans grouped separately. The registrations are unindexed. In 1868 many of your ancestors participated in the political aspects of South Carolina

living next to Lumbie McRae family - William Junius Chandler married Ethel McCrae whose father is Lumbie McRae

Notes
1910 census - it looks like it indicates that this was the third marriage for him, and the first for his wife Martha A.
1880 census - cannot read or write

1900 census says they were married 10 years, but the 1920 census says the same thing - 10 years.

1910 - 2 children, both still alive - if this is true, then it seems that William is not her son - also she is only 10 years older than him.

1920 - 4 children, all still alive
