Continuing my search for parents for Elizabeth Chambers, wife of James  
Hooper (Obadiah 1), I furnished the following information:
Lunenburg County, VA Wills 1746-1825
86. Chambers, Thomas, Sr. 7-11-1798 WB 4/222-3

Mentions sons; Edward Chambers, John Chambers, Thomas Chambers, Moses
Chambers, William Chambers, daughters, Polly Chambers, Nancy Chambers,
Elizabeth Chambers, Sally Chambers, Tempie Chambers, Granddaughters,
Polly Rudder, Johanna Cole,. Executors: Edward Chambers, Thomas
Chambers, James McFarland,. Witnesses: Asa Barnes, Francis Smith,
Theodowick Love, Robert (his mark) Garrett.

I am currently in  contact with a descendant of Polly Rudder, who  
furnished me with this very interesting information on Flat Rock,  
which is in the National Register of Historic Places and associated  
with Thomas Chambers and James Hooper.
This is the site where the information can be found:

I also find. find land clearance in the Vestry Book of St. Paul's  
Parish, Hanover Virginia 1706-1786 (page. 134) October 4, 1732 with  
James Hooper and Widdow Chambers and Edward Chambers in the same  
vicinity.

Can anyone add anything to this research or furnish additional proof  
of parents for Elizabeth Chambers?
