Cecil Chapin born 3-18-1894. On his marriage certificate he lists his
place of birth as Jamestown, NY. And his parents are listed as Harry
Chapin and Hattie Schermerhorn. I contacted Jamestown requesting a birth
record but they had none. On his WWI draft registration he lists Buffalo,
NY as his place of birth, they also came up empty when I queried.
I have searched 1880 - 1920 census records and have never found Harry and
Hattie together. By the 1900 census, Cecil, who was 6, was living with a
another family in Cleveland, OH. Therefore I have reached my brick wall
on that side. Any info on Harry or Hattie would start to fill out this
line.
