There are two Freedom Chamberlains born to brothers Nathaniel of Massachusetts and Joseph who moved to Connecticut. Nathaniel's son was married to Mary Soule. She stayed in the Plymouth Colony with her husband at least until he died in 1781. Joseph's son Freedom was also married to a woman named Mary who must have died before he started having children with another woman in 1755. See http://worldchamberlaingenealogy.org/dcc_fgr/dccfgr/p243.htm#i7294. Mary should be disconnected as wife from Chamberlain-1332 and from daughter Mary Chamberlain-4253
