Hello to all,
To those who research the branch of the Chapin family in Canada, can you help me out.
I have lost the email address of the people who have contacted me before, so I hope they
see this posting.
My ancestor was the brother of Elam Chapin b. in 1778 who married Mary Eddy.
I am wondering if anyone can share information about Mary's family. Sibblings,
parents ect.
I am trying to approach things from another angle.
My ancestor was Gordon Chapin who was born in 1786. He was in Canada at least by 1811
when a child was born.
I have not been able to find out who his wife was, but according to census records the
mother of his children was born in Canada.
I am wondering if possibly he married a relative of Mary Eddy's since it was common
for sibblings to marry sibblings etc....
I'm still trying to break down that brick wall .... any help is welcome.
