Charles Thomas Lind, born in Virginia on Dec. 15, 1811, grew to manhood in Ohio and married Nancy Agnes McBride, a native of Ireland on Nov. 20, 1842 in Ohio. He and his wife moved to Ballard Co., Ky where they lived for several years but about 1850 they moved to Knox Co., Indiana and settled on a small farm near Sandborn, not far from the Green Co., line. Charles Thomas Lind was a physician and during the Civil War served as an examining physician for the Union Army. He was also one of the few doctors in southwestern Indiana and became quite well-known but overworked. One story relates that he was so overworked when he himself became ill he accidently took the wrong medicine and died as a result.  Charles and Nancy Lind were the parents of nine children.  Dr. Charles T. Lind and his family were members of the Pleasantville Methodist Church at Pleasantville, Indiana and he is buried in the cemetery there.

THE CHAMBERLAIN FAMILY BIBLE - Corryton, Tennessee, 1800s

 The following are pages out of the Chamberlain Family Bible.  My cousin - Lucy Alice (Little) Dunsmore gave me copies of the family bible.  I do not know who has it or even if it still exists.  Since Lucy passed in 1987, so many important family papers were lost or thrown away.
