I have been collecting CHASSEREAU family history and information for many
years but keep running into the "brickwall."  The name is spelled differently
in almost every document.  The earliest SC Chassereau I can locate is a John
Chassereau who "lived near Three Mile Creek in Orangeburg District on waters
of the Great Satlcatchers (sic) Swamp."  His neighbor was Abijah O'Neal.
Also, a John Chassereau sold George Bishop 50 acres of land in Barnwell County
on August 10, 1796.  John Chassereau (Chesareau) received land grants in SC in
1786 and 1789.  Other Chassereaus - possibly sons of John Chassereau - were
Joseph Chassereau (Casuahau), b. abt. 1807, Isaac Chassereau (Chessherau), b.
abt. 1812, Jacob Chassereau (Casssereau), b. abt 1813, and John Alfred
Chassereau (Casuahau), b. June 23, 1817.  Questions?  Where did originial
Chassereau come from?  Reviews of ship passenger lists reveal little
information.  I would like to communicate with anyone who is a Chassereau
descendant, anyone with Chassereau or allied family information, or anyone who
can point me toward possible sources of information about this family.  Any
help or information will be deeply appreciated and I will gladly share
information I have with others.  Can you help me break through this brickwall?
Thanks!
