These are my Paternal Great Grandparents, Daniel "Dan" Stuart Chesney, and Cordelia "Cordie" Hubbs Chesney. Dan was born in Union County, TN in 1873 and Cordie in Union County, Tn in 1878. They got married on March 3, 1895, Dan was 22 and Cordie was 17-years old. In their 53-years of marriage they had 7 children, 19 great grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. Dan was a farmer by trade and in 1948 he came down with Pneumonia and died at the age of 75. Cordie went on to live another 23-years and died in August of 1971 at the old age of 93. She was a member of Highland Baptist Church. My grandfather, Edd Spencer, and my granduncle, Adral Hall both officiated her funeral and my dad was a pallbearer. Dan and Cordie are buried in the Union Cemetery on Washington Pike.
