  Gender	Female
  Education	attended the College for women in Greenville, South Carolina  [4]
  HIST	There are four daughters but I only had their names. I went in order of husbands names so they may all be mixed up. jkh Thank you for writing. Please be assured that I am empathetic, not critical, and some other cousins and I are eager to be of help. I remember recently sending only one such recent "comment" reply, but I did not record the site, although I might be able to find it in my "sent" e-mail file. The site I viewed contained several important errors. My fellow Mayes researchers and I do not yet have a posted Family Tree, so I suggest that you send me the connection to your site again and if I can make a copy of your chart/info, correct it and then try to send it back you on an e-mail with the corrected copy. Alternatively, I will try to send you the corrections in your "reply" function, but this may be difficult if I try to include the sources for the corrections, including wills, deeds, etc. You can also print your chart, etc., send it to me either (1) by e-mail w/copy or (2) send me a copy by "snail mail" and I will enter the corrections that have been proven so far by several other Mayes researchers, including other descendants of MATTHEW PETERSON MAYES. MPM (not MPM II) was my gg/grandfather. I descend from him through his son Matthew Peterson Mayes, Jr. and the latter's daughter Mary Frances Mayes who was my grandmother. She married (Reverend) William Bratton Steele Chandler, also a native of Mayesville in 1907. I am not a highly trained online communicator, but I am always happy to help cousins (or their researchers) about our Mayes family. Not only did they expand rapidly with many repetitive names, but is further complicated because of the loss of so many records, especially in the Civil War. Our family ultimately traces back to Prince George County, VA, just east of Petersburg, VA across the Appomattox River. PGC and other counties surrounding Richmond was among the most battle contested areas in the entire war because so many Confederate troops spent a large part of the war encircling the lands/counties surrounding Richmond, the South's capital. My "snail mail" is Joseph B. Chandler, Jr. 3108 Eastover Ridge Dr. Apt. 814 Charlotte, NC 28211. Warmest regards, joe  [1, 4]
