This is the first time that I have tried this so bear with me.
My GG-Grandmother's name was Harriett Chapin, she married Thomas W. Knight. I think it
took place in Monson, Maine. I don't have a date when the marriage took place and
don't know when she was born. In the 1870 US Census in Lincoln County, SD it shows her
age as 26 with the enumeration date of
9 June 1970, however, it shows T. W. Knight as 27 years old. I have his Death Certificate
and it says he was born Jan 10, 1842. I have been told that she was born in 1844, month
and day unknown.
I have recently received some pictures of a man named Amasa Chapin and a woman is listed
as Mrs. Amasa Chapin. The pictures were taken by a F.H. Sherburne, at Monson, Maine. Date
unknown. I wonder if anyone can show proof that this man and woman are Harriet
Chapin's parents and what may be the first name and maiden name of Mrs. Amasa Chapin,
also if their were other siblings of Harriett Chapin. Any help would be appreciated,
hoping. John
