Message Board Post:
Just came across this thread. Unfortunately, I didn't know Pearl, but Chester is my
Grandfather from his "previous" family. My grandmother (his wife prior to
Pearl) was named Edith, but I am not sure of her maiden name. I will have to ask some
questions of my own!
I met Mark back in the mid seventies - he lived with my family for a brief while - but I
was young and have no real information concerning him other then he was going through some
rough times.
In addition to Chester (nickname: Bunky) Chapin and Toni (Chapin) Gradwohl, there were
actually two more children: Richard Chapin and Charles Anthony Chapin (My father).
Richard passed some years back, but Charles (Chuck) is living up on the Oregon coast with
his wife Shirley.
Chester (nickname: Bunky) Chapin also passed many years ago, but two of his three children
live in central California. His oldest son, Thomas Chapin, also passed a couple of years
ago. Toni Gradwohl and her family live in the Vallejo, CA region and are doing well.
I will check with my father and Toni to see what they know about Dorothy and Mark.
Thanks for the information. I am pretty new to this stuff and am just starting my own
research.
