PIERRE CHASTAIN
AND DESCENDANTS &
OTHER UNPLACED EARLY SHASTEEN
/ CHASTAIN NAMES
|
This is a listing of
names that are unplaced, not fully documented, etc., compiled in an
effort to find and verify likely paternity for unplaced Shasteen and
Chastain family members, at this time focused on my line, thus the
focus on the very early years. Much of the information was initiated
from the "Otter" book initially For the placement of James "Buff" Shasteen and contemporaries, with his estimated b at pre 1727, placement could potentially include:: • Adoption from a relative or close friend • Son of another line altogether, perhaps the misspelling of a Christian, Shelton, or Shasted (Kent England names found) or what not • Various Other Shasteen/Chastain Names — primarily Chastain variations • Shasteen Name Variations Research — primarily Shastead, Shasted, Shastid, primarily Kent, England • Son of a non-Pierre (b 1659 d 1728) male Chastain like Stephen Chastain or Isaac Chastain below • Unnamed son of Pierre Chastain (b 1659 d 1728) • Unnamed son of first known son of Pierre, John (Jean Adam) Chastain (b 1721 d 1807) • Unnamed son of second known son of Pierre, Peter (Pierre) Chastain (b 1707 d aft 1775) • Not an unnamed son of third known son of Pierre, Rene Chastain (b est 1713 d 1786) For the placement of James "J River" Shasteen and James "Pedlar" and brother Jesse Shasteenconsideration would be more extensive, including adoption, but based on estimated birth dates, would be an extremely wider range of possibilities than for their father, including men such as Isaac Chastain below, as well as numerous other Chastain men. Initially, I will start with attempts to develop information upon likely placements for births in the 1720 -1740 time frame as that would cover James "Buff" b est circa 1727 and a contemporary, as well as familiarizing myself with the potential placement for James "J River" and James "Pedlar" and brother Jesse b circa 1755-1761 |

Lineage — Source of information from
Chastain_Francois_Desc_frmMillerApr2008.pdf — PAF file output provided
by Darrell Miller in 2008 Note: Pierre's parentage is well documented at the beginning of his lineage page.. This is an exercise while looking for James "Buff" Shasteen parentage. |

The lines of these two men are well documented
as having originated in Amherst Co., VA circa 1785 and moved to Madison Co., KY
circa 1792 and 1791 respectively. Have my own PAF files for both men as well as
pdf files from another ardent researcher of their lines. Much has also been done
by Joy Gallagher on the Jesse Shasteen line which can be read at: Chastain Central — http://www.chastaincentral.com/ • Shasteen — http://www.chastaincentral.com//content/shasteen.html • James Shasteen, brother of Jesse Shasteen — http://www.chastaincentral.com//content/shasteen.html • Jesse Shasteen / Chastain — http://www.chastaincentral.com//content/jesse.html, by Joy Gallagher |
