I imagine you are aware of the dispute over the two Joseph Chapmans who
lived at
Frederick Co Va. My Joseph was son of Giles and Sarah (Jackson) Chapman.
Before we knew about the other Joseph Chapman, we had decided that our
Joseph married Catherine Anderson, daughter of Bartholamew Anderson. And
since deed records of Newberry Co SC revealed that Joseph's wife's name was
Catherine, we felt safe in our claim. Then the waters were muddied by the
same claims being made my the other Joseph Chapman. So, I guess we will
never know unless we get tested. Do you have any suggestions? James

Hi James,
We need someone in your line to get DNA tested.
My Chapman lineage, goes back to Frederick Co. VA,
to the same time Gile Chapman and family were there.
Although I do not think they are connected, I would
like to eliminate that they weren't.
