The life of Calvin G. Chamberlain
Biography
Calvin G. Chamberlain was born at Dudley, in southern Massachusetts near the Connecticut border, on July 19, 1809. His family reconstruction identifies his parents as Asahel Chamberlain and Sophia Wing. In 1838 he married Julia Woodward of Sturbridge, whose middle initial appears as F., H. or P. in the family accounts.
The children’s recorded birthplaces trace the family through Webster, East Bridgewater, and Worcester, all in Massachusetts. William Tyler was followed by Caroline Amelia, Charles, James Wing, Elizabeth, Mary Jane, and Frank Peabody. The household suffered two early losses: Charles died in June 1843, little more than a year after his birth, and Elizabeth died in July 1848 shortly after her first birthday.
Calvin died at Auburn, near Worcester, on August 29, 1869. His memorial associates him with Hope Cemetery in Worcester, where several members of the family were buried. Julia survived him for more than thirty years.
