Rebecca Sheldon Chapin must have been one remarkable
woman, I see she lived to be 95 & had her last child when
she was 45, no mean feat by even todays standard. These
ancestors of ours were a very hardy people. I have a little
more information on some of the above children as to whom
they married if you wish it. & yes, now that you have the
parents of all the above kids you can trace it all the way back
to Deacon Samuel Chapin, can you do this?
My kindest regards to you & hope that the above
information has been helpful, let me know if I can assist you
further. Montague Hamilton Chapin
