It appears Henry Chambers and the sons immigrated first in July 1856. They are listed as bricklayers. I assume they came first to establish a home.

New York Passenger Lists 1856: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:27RX-D3N
There is a George Sandler, age 21, gardener, listed after the Chambers. They were all in a 2nd Cabin.
Could this be George Sandall who married Augusta Chambers?

I'm still looking for both Henrys, Chambers and Sandall.
I just wanted to be sure you saw the George Sanders on the manifest, because it looked like Augusta's husband to me.

re Henry Chambers, have you found him in 1870? They should have their oldest daughter Annie with them. His occupation might help identify him.
Other than that, if there aren't any other Henry Chambers in the area, then he is probably son of Henry (b 1814) and Elizabeth. To many Americans all of England is London, and all of Canada is either Toronto or Montreal, all of New York State is New York City, etc.  So I wouldn't worry much about his birthplace on a death record or a tombstone - I don't know where you found "London" - I did see it at findagrave.
