Is it possible Vicki's William, otherwise known as Martin by her
grandmother could
be a child of Martin Greenup, and do you think maybe his son, again,
known by her
grandmother as An could be short of Anderson?

Paul Rekow recently send me an update on his descendents of James Chapman
of Amelia Co., VA.
James son John (b.1791 VA) had a son Albert (b. 1819 Scioto Co., OH)
who had a son William b. November 11, 1842 location unknown. Acording to
Paul, William died in the civil war March 25, 1865 in Petersburg, VA.
Unknown as yet where Albert was when he died or where the William, his 3
sisters and brother John were born. Maybe Paul can add to the discussion.

My Chapman/McCarty line doesn't actually intersect directly. My 3rd
ggrandparents were Isaac Cooksey and Caroline McCarty (dau. of Isaac McCarty
and Margaret Cooksey), md. 1845 Brookville (Franklin Co.), IN. Mary Alice
Cooksey (dau. of Isaac Cooksey and Caroline McCarty) md. Isaac Chapman in
1872 (my 2nd ggrandparents). Confusing enough for you? :-)
You might try to go directly to my surnames page if the server will let you.
Just click this: http://homepages.infoseek.com/~thenightflyer/surnames.htm
Let me know if this doesn't work, and we'll try to find another back door.
Thanks!

A while back Mary posted info to the list about a John Chapman, maybe
from TN,
he had two children Henry Clay Chapman and Tennessee Chapman. Henry
Clay
Chapman was Mary's ggrandfather. He settled in or around Jackson,
OHIO, and
his son Charles PINCKNEY Chapman, Sr. was her grandfather born on 5
Jan 1886,
he also lived and died in Jackson, OH.
She made the statement these Chapman started out in NC, but she didn't
elaborate
on this; however, I think they belong to Samuel's bunch in Amelia Co.,
and just
wandered down there, and I think their connected to my Chapmans, and
Kay's, etc.,
and probably most of the MO bunch, Noni's too. We just need to get
the key. I hope
I haven't bored you all to tears, if anybody has any suggestions for
me, I am certainly
grateful. Am sending to NARA with my Wm. Chapman, but I don't hold
out much hope
because I am informed that NARA did not have the Home Guard records.
I'm trying
anyway.

Hi List -
I am just sending this in tact because 1) I'm too lazy to type all the
info, and )2 I
haven't learned to paste or whatever, and I don't know if I can do
that on this computer
so here goes. Hope somebody can use this info.

Tracy Hi.
Was going to check out your page but they say it's down for maintenance so ---
To add to the confusion I am also researching my grand daughter's Chapman
line that connects to McCartny or McCarty. Where did your Chapmans
intersect with the McCarty line? Joni's grandmother has gone in to DAR on
Michael McCarty --and there is a book that a friend has a copy of that
goes into these lines --Will have to check name of it but something like
"Southern Families of Chapman and McCarty "???
These were the ones that came through GA, AL and on to MS and LA --the
earliest Chapman were a family with a John, Anthony H and Elizabeth and
Eward William --I do have info on some of these and of Course Anthony H
Chapman is the one Joni' is from and he was a twin born in VA and married
in GA --Jasper Co. --need to pull some files if anybody needs infor from
that line or can share a connection. He was born about 1800 in VA and
came to GA and ended up in Catahoula Parish Louisiana.

Hi,
Just wanted to clarify something that Gail said about the James Chapman
from Jackson Co. Ohio. He stated that he was born in NC on this 1850
census place of birth, and again on 1860 census. Then Robert, the son
that I lay claim to said in the 1870 census that his father was born in TN
--so I am assuming (and I know what they say about "assume') but that he
(the father James) was born in the area of NC that later became TN --NOT
one shred of proof for this at this time. AS far AS I Know they were never
in VA --that is the other James of Scioto Co. --very confusing here with
the area so close, names so similar and All along I had hoped the Sarah
might have been James mother but Paul now has info on her and she never
laid claim to any children other than the Ragsdale bunch. SO blows that
theory out of the water.
My info that William/Jane and sons went to MO and he was killed in Guard
was from third son's Andrew's biographical info in the Macon/DeWitt County
Biographical book.
He also stated that his sister, Lourania went there too and she married
Daniel Beaver and recently Marilou has contacted me and she is descended
from this line and has picture of gravestones of the pair and they did end
up in Cole CO. MO. after a side trip to Neb. I only need to account for
Nancy Chapman Clark and she married James Clark in OH. and he died and she
went to MO. No idea if she remarried so that may be tricky. Going to try
Clark list soon.
And then Catherine married Henry Smith and they ended up in Moultrie Co. IL
next to Macon Co. where James and Rebecca ended up. So it is not
unreasonable for William and Jane to have gone through or to visit in IL
and had Malinda.
Sure wish they would have left road maps of their trips in those days.
Just wanted to clarify that I do not have any proof of any connection
between the two James as I have decided to call them.
Kay Goeggle
I have the book: The 24th Missouri Volunteer Infantry "Lyon Legion". Does
anyone want me to look anything up? The following Chapman's are listed:
John P. Chapman born 26 December 1836
Deliliah Jane
Edward Burton
Elias
Eliza J.
Irvin
Jesse Asberry
John
John B.
John C.
Louisa
Mahala
Martha J.
Mary
Mary E.
Nancy
Purlina
Sarah
Gail,
My Chapman's are also a Missouri Mystery. Can anyone help me fine John M.,
Calvin M., Miles, or Luther R. Chapman? Luther was born in 1822. I find
him early 1840 in St. Francois County, MO and also Crawford County, MO.
Isn't Linn County close to these?

George, Dave -
Kay has maintained all along that her Robert, brothers Wm. and Andrew,
are somehow
connected with the Carolinas, in otherwords, someone went there from
VA or whatever.
and then returned to OH. I notice Robert Henry Chapman was born in
Pike Co., IL and
that interests me because a daughter of my gggrandfather Wm. C., was
born in IL, don't
know where yet, but her name was Malinda. The next child, Henry was
born in IA, and
I can tell you right now that Wayne Co. IA, next to MErcer Co., MO is
LOADED with
Chapmans at one time or another. I think they are all related and
visited each other more than once!!! My Wm. C. was born in OH, so
were my ggrandfather James
Anderson, and guncle Wm. R. Gggrandfather William C. Chapman owned a
farm next
to my Gggrandfather Clemens in MErcer Co., and when he didn't come
home from the
war or whatever, James ANDERSON Chapman, took over the farm, and his
mother
Jane, and her daughters Malinda and Jane, lived with James. (1870
census and my grandmothers records) They then migrated to OK ca 1890.
I am really excited about
this.
gail
Dave, George,
Just Terrific! I am walking on air, I finally had something someone
could use!!
These are very reliable sources that I got this info from, actually,
I've had them a
couple of months, I just didn't know what to do with them. They come
from two
gentlemen who have done this for years, one was raised in Mercer Co.,
now lives
in IA, and he has every published record, I do believe, from the
county. The other
gentleman is just as good.
David Chapman is in household 14, so he HAS to be related, you know
that. Yes,
my Chapmans came from Amelia Co., VA, but I don't know how to make the
connection with your bunch. I am still working on my William C.
Chapman, my gggrandfather who died,
we think, in the CW by deserters or guerillas. His sons, my
ggrandfather James
Anderson Chapman, and guncle Wm. R. Chapman, served in the 23rd MO
Volunteer
Infantry REgt., a very distinguished unit, they have their own
website, etc. I need to
be able to hook up my Chapmans and yours, because they obviously came
out of
Amelia Co., only mine went to OH and yours went south.
Kay and I have torn our hair out trying to hook this bunch up, and
Noni and I have done
the same thing, because her ancestor William C. C. Chapman, (also
known as lover-
boy) is in Mercer, Harrison Counties, and also served in the 23rd.
I'm sorry if your folks gave you the slip in 1870, but as I said,
these are good, reliable,
sources. Would either of you mind giving me a rundown on your folks,
so maybe I
could see what's going on? I have some more names out of Linn Co., I
don't have
any dates, etc., but I think I could get them if anyone thought they
belonged. Let me
know. I can use all the help you can give.

Hello fellow researchers,
I am searching for any and all information about my ggrandfather William
Chapman. He could have also gone by Martin. My grandmother called him Martin
and papers found after her death said his name was William. I believe he was
born in Anderson S.C. in the late 1800's. He married Joanne ? have not been
able to find her maiden name or the date they married or died. They had at
least three children, my grandmother Leila and her twin Lila, who died at the
age of three months. They also had a son my grandmother called An. I don't
know if this is short for something else or not.
If any of this rings a bell with anyone I would appreciate hearing from them.
Thank you,

My Chapmans passed through MO on the way from Spartanburn SC to Farmersville,

Another lost cousin?
Coleman Wood's family was listed in the 1860 census in McDonald Co, Mo.
My great grandmother wrote in her biography:
I, Sarah Matilda Sellers Chapman Weaver was born September 15, 1862 in
south-western Missouri near the town of Seneca. We moved from there to
Indian Creek...
My first school was at Beaver Springs in a log house dobbed with mud and
lime. We also attended Sunday School and church in this same building.
Reverend Coleman Chapman, who later became my father in law, was the pastor
of the church. The remainder of my school days were spent at Rocky Knobs.
Does Indian Creek, Beaver Springs or Rocky Knobs ring a bell in Mercer County?
