James Buchanan and Jane Chambers were married July 9, 1797 in Richmond Co., GA. There

Buchanan or he died because when she married my GG Grandfather, Wiley Hailes she had
a daughter, named Susan Jane Buchanan. If I can determine who was on the marriage bond I
might have a better chance at finding these folks. Any other information will be appreciated
also. Thanks Gordon Reid Hale, Jr. Grand Prairie, Texas
