Hide Profile
Theophilus Chandler was assistant treasurer at the Customs House in Boston and a financial backer of the Dupont Company. He married Elizabeth Julia Schlatter, who was from a Philadelphia family. They lived in Brookline, Massachusetts, and had at least four sons, and probably three daughters. Elizabeth Schlatter Chandler corresponded with Sophie Madeline du Pont, the wife of Admiral Samuel Francis du Pont, with other women living in Wilmington, and with her Clark relatives in Pennsylvania. Their son Theophilus Parsons Chandler, Jr. (1845-1928) was an important architect in late 19th century Philadelphia. Although he drew cottage plans which were published in Godey's Lady's Book, Chandler was especially noted for his church designs. Chandler married Sophie Madeline du Pont on March 8, 1873. Sophie (1851-1931) was the daughter of Louisa Gerhard and Henry du Pont. Another son was Alfred Dupont Chandler (born 1847), who was a lawyer in New York and Boston.
