I am trying to determine if the below Roswell Chapin was the son of Daniel
Chapin of Wardsboro, VT, who died in 1791 with 2 small children, Roswell &
Margaret Lucinda. Daniel was the son of Samuel (& Beulah Taft), who was the
son of Joseph, according to the Chapin books. The naming pattern certainly
indicates so.
