History of Macon County, Illinois. With Illustrations Descriptive Of Its
Scenery, and Biographical Sketches of some of its Prominent Men and
Pioneers. Published by Brink, McDonough & Co., Phildelphia, 1880.

THOMAS CHAMBERS was born in Bourbon county, Kentucky, May 15th, 1827.
James Chambers, his father, was also a native of the same state. He was a
soldier in the war under the command of General William H. Harrison. In
1835 he moved to Indiana, where he lived eighteen months; then came to
Illinois and settled in Vermillion county, and remained there six years,
then came to Macon county, and settled permanently in Oakley township. He
here entered forty acres of land, and purchased forty acres of school
land in section 26, T. 17, R. 4 E. He remained in Oakley township until
his death, which took place, August 25, 1877, in the seventy-fifty year
of his age. He married Nancy Buoy. She died about the year 1855. By this
marriage there were five children, three sons and two daughters; all
living except Mary, who was married to Daniel Dickey. Laban is the eldest
son. He was a soldier in the war with Mexico, and was wounded at the
battle of Cerro Gordo, and suffered the amputation of his right arm.
Thomas is the youngest son and fourth in the family. He received but an
indifferent education in his youth. Confinement in school-houses was
irksome to his naturally bouyant disposition. He could never bear
confinement. He
wanted to roam around and enjoy the fine free air. This is his
disposition yet. After the family removed to Macon county, Thomas
purchased land in section 21, Town 17, Range 4. It was unimproved. Here
he has resided up to the present time, and now has one of the best farms
in the township. He married Miss Mary, daughter of Robert and Jennie
Gates. Mr. Gates was a native of Kentucky, and his wife, of Tennessee. He
died on a trip to California in 1849, and Mrs. Gates died in Missouri.
There have been born to Thomas and Mary Chambers six children, five of
whom are living. Their names are Margaret Ellen, wife of James K. Peck,
Effie Jane, Elizabeth, Emma, and William R. Chambers. Politically Mr.
Chambers is a republican. Before the formation of the Republican party he
was an old-line whig, and cast his first presidential vote for General
Taylor in 1848. Mr. Chambers has always followed the occupation of
farming and stock raising and stock trading, in all of which he has been
very successful. He started in life poor; and waht he has, has been the
accumultionof patient toil, the practice of economical habits. In his
manners he is pleasant and agreeable, and in his home a hospitable
gentleman.
