In 1894 Charles Chatfield married Nellie Chamberlin (my maternal grandparents) when he was twenty-three and she was twenty-one. Nellie, a no-nonsense Catholic girl, strong-willed, exceedingly religious but with a mind of her own, refused to consummate their marriage. In frustration, Charles took his new bride for guidance to the priest who married them. Father Carr sat Nellie down. He told her to go home and be a dutiful wife. Nine months later Nellie bore her first child, and over the next twenty years, nine more.
