There being few records linking them, the names of the children of Daniel Chandler and Mary Stovall are not easily reassembled. The 1800 census for Caswell County, North Carolina (the only enumeration of this family) reveals eight children born between 1785 and 1800. Thorough investigation of tax and deed records indicates that they were the following.

1. A daughter b. about 1785 (perhaps Sarah Chandler who m. Henry Thomas).

2. Anderson Chandler, b. June 1786 (m. 1. Marcia Anderson and 2. Nancy Reed).

3. A daughter b. about 1788 (perhaps Elizabeth Chandler who m. John Payne).

4. Pleasant Chandler, b. 1 May 1789 (m. 1. Martha Jeffreys and 2. Jemima Cobb).

5. Richard Wilkins Chandler, b. 19 April 1791 (m. Joyce Willis).

6. Susannah Chandler, b. 1793 (m. Benjamin Willis).

7. Daniel Chandler, b. 1796 (m. Mary Groom).

8. Nancy Chandler, b. 1799 (m. Bennett Malone).

Whether there were additional children born after 1800 is unknown.

NOTE: In some works, the husband of Mary Stovall has been given incorrectly as "David Chandler" due to a transcription error. The original will (unbound) of her father Bartholomew Stovall shows that the name is Daniel Chandler.
