Outline of the Cheuvront Family in America
by: Wesley L. Cheuvront
from A Brief History of the Cheuvront Family In America
1: First Generation in America
   
Record of the First Family of Joseph Cheuvront, cont'd 
Cheuvronts to Nebraska 
 
[W.L. Cheuvront notes here that "these are all descendants of Aaron(2) Cheuvront through his son Joseph(3).  The repetition of names gets very confusing.  The family...consisted of Lemuel, Sylvester, Moses, Andrew, Joanna, and Caroline.  They were all said to have settled in Nebraska."] 

After the close of the Civil War, Lemuel and Moses Cheuvront, both soldiers in the Federal Army, moved to Lincoln, NE in 1872, where they each had rather large families.  Lemuel's daughter was a Mrs. Mattie Davis of Chicago, and his grandson was Raleigh Cheuvront of Miami FL and Chicago IL. 

Isaac(3) [Aaron(2)'s son] married Catherine Childers, with his grandfather Joseph Cheuvront officiating, and [their] children were: Aaron(3), Martin, Marion ("Moll"), Matilda, Sarah, Margaret, Priscilla, and Phoebe.  There are many descendants of these in Wirt and Roane Counties Va. and other states.

Children of CALEB and REBECCA COVERT CHEUVRONT
 
Morris, Joseph[5?] [or James? see note],Elizabeth, Jeremiah Patterson, 
Jesse, Mary Ann, Benjamin[4] F.

1: Morris Cheuvront (s/o Caleb and Rebecca Covert Cheuvront) married Harriet M. Preston of Bridgeport, WVa on Nov. 6th, 1844.  She was a first cousin of "Newt" Wilkinson and a niece of "Aunt Sally" Washburn of Good Hope. [Morris and Harriet] have six children buried in the Cheuvront row of Old Bethel Cemetery, five of whom died at birth and are buried in unmarked graves.  Their living children included: 
James Ellsworth ["Ellsworth"], Benjamin(3), George(2), Charles(2), Belle, and Mary(3). 
Their eldest son Ellsworth declined to go with his parents [when they moved] to Illinois and [he] remained with Caleb and Rebecca.  After most of the children were married Morris and Harriett moved [again to] Kansas where they both lived to a good old age. 
Ellsworth and George(2) were the only members of their family who left any descendants with the Cheuvront name. George(2) reared his family in Illinois while Ellsworth stayed and married Joanna Cottrill [daughter of Luther Cottrill] on June 30, 1879.  They had one son, Ellsworth(2)Jr., who later married Luna Moffet of West Milford Va.  Ellsworth(2)Jr. and Luna had two children, Pauline ( who married a Richardson and was a schoolteacher in Clarksburg), and Chester E. Cheuvront, a notary public of West Milford.  Ben died childless and Charles(2) died unmarried in CA. 

[from the W.L. Cheuvront text was this entry:"(Morris, Caleb's son) borrowed $1,000 from John Lodge's father, and Caleb signed the note as a security, thinking Morris paid the note when in 1858 he sold his farm to "Buffalo Jim" James Burnside and moved to Illinois." Later, after his death, Caleb's estate paid the note to Mr. Lodge.]
