Edgar, others, To save you all some time, this researcher has a chart on Ancestry and has census records and some other info listed. They seem to have traced this family back to an Owen Chase who was a sea captain of note from Nantucket and has much written about him if you should google the name. I am not sure exactly what info they are seeking on George M. and he/she needs to be more specific. So far, I have not seen a son George M. for Owen Chase. There was a son William. Also, if they reach out to the Nantucket Historical Society, they will find much information there and a very helpful staff. I had contacted the NHS previously and they helped me immensely with a sister in law's family research and gave me the lead I needed to find out her grandmother died in VA visiting a daughter.
