The Chandler Family Crest
The first settler in New England, in this branch of the family, was William Chandler, of Roxbury, who came over in 1637. His grandson, John Chandler, moved to Worcester, Mass., and was appointed first Chief Justice of the Court of Common Pleas. The arms we give are from a bookplate of John Chandler, Jr., son of the above-mentioned Chief Justice. The original was engraved by Nathaniel Hurd, presumably, on good authority. The family originated from Co. Essex, England. Burke gives these arms to the London Chandlers.
