Wife-1: J. Missouri CHAMBLER
Birth: 1846/7, GA
Occupation: homemaker

Some have asserted that Missouri is the daughter of Benjamin CHAMBLER, but I find no evidence to document the connection. While Benjamin is found in the 1860 census of Franklin Co., GA (q.v.), he has no spouse or children with him. I cannot find Benjamin in 1850, nor can I find Missouri in either 1850 or 1860, so the identity of her parents remains unknown. I wouldn't make too much of the fact that she named her first child, Benjamin, because John had a brother, Benjamin Franklin DOVE, who died in the Civil War, and it is said this son was named for him.
