Hello
I have resubscribed to this list after being off it for some time. Perhaps
some new subscribers are out there!
I have an interest in finding the family of Samuel Steel Chapman born in
1876 and Elizabeth Bertha Fry also born in 1876. They were married in 1896
in Camberwell. According to their marriage certificate, Samuel's father was
also called Samuel Steel Chapman.
I am having some difficulty tracking them down in the 1901 census but think
I may have found them living in Camberwell with two children Minnie aged 4
and Horace, aged 1 both born in Peckham. This family also included Alice,
Stanley, Gladys and Elsie all born between 1901 and 1909. I have not
downloaded the actual census page yet, so cannot say if he is shown as
Samuel Steel Chapman or where they actually lived.
I have found the only five year old Samuel Chapman in the 1881 census for
London. He is a pupil at the St. Marylebone school in Hayes, Middlesex,
which was connected to the St. Marylebone workhouse in London. It does not
give a birth location for him, other than London. I have a found his birth
registraton in the Greenwich district.
I am hoping that someone may recognise this family. Elizabeth Fry is the
only one of my grandfather's eight siblings that I cannot account for.
Maybe there are some Chapman cousins out there!
