I have a William Sherman Chapman, 1810 - 1865, who was the son of Samuel Chapman. William
was born in Tennessee as far as I know, later married and had many sons and daughters,
finally ending his tenure on earth in Scott County, Illinois. William married into the
Merriss family and is buried in the Merriss Family Cemetery. Does any of this connect
with anyone doing Chapman research?
