As members come and go from this list I think that it is timely to remind
everyone of the courtesies of mailing lists, in particular the content of
subject lines.
The subject line of a message is a little like the headline of a newspaper.
It is what attracts the reader. Many users have inboxes overflowing with
messages so a subject line such as 'Help required' or 'Request' is very
likely to be ignored and deleted.
Also when answering a post please change the subject line. Recently there
has been many posts that have nothing to do with the subject line that they are
" Re:"
Your subject line should be brief and contain a clue as to what it is that
you are looking for eg
CHAPMAN name(subject), date, place etc.
Thanks, Carol list MOM
Keith, The Chapman Association has a library that would probably gladly
accept your information. I can get you an email address so that you can
talk with someone if you are interested.

I can tell you that a lot of Chapman fols migrated from SC to GA.
Many of those from the Egdefield, Newberry and Saluda Counties moved to
Georgia.
Do you know where (which county) William and John were born in?
I don't see this as a direct connection to the Saluda or Newberry Chapman's
but maybe. The places this family would travel are many of the same places
Rev Thomas Chapman would go latter on.
The timing of Enoch's birth suggests he could have been down the Giles line
in SC. A lot of these folks would migrate to GA.

Subject: RE: [CHAPMAN] Who do you leave your research to?
That's the problem, I'm not sure where they were in either South Carolina or
Tennessee. Enoch Chapman was born in South Carolina (according to what he
told the census takers in 1850) in 1783 and married Nancy Parker before
1808. She was born in Virginia in 1779. Enoch and Nancy Chapman had sons,
William and John who were born in South Carolina (ca. 1808-11) and sons,
James and Abner, who were born in Tennessee (ca. 1815-1816). By 1826 the
whole bunch of them had moved to Pole Cat Beat, Perry County, Alabama where
Enoch, Nancy, John and William and their spouses died and are buried. James
and Abner with their spouses and children moved on to Arkansas and later to
Texas. My brick wall is at Enoch.

You all make me think, as I have been done for several years, where to
leave my "stuff." I now live in CA, far away from my New York origins. I'm
very active in the SoCa Genealogical Association, and I'm beginning to
place sticky notes on (or in) the hard- and paper-bound books I've
collected to say to my kids: donate here or here. (ones that SCGS already
has, they can sell at one of their book sales).
Since most of my families settled in and around Cooperstown, NY, mostly
from MA & CT, I'm hoping the NY State Historical Association will take my
notebooks. Another possible place for me to donate materials might be the
NY State Library.
Widening the circle, I think of NEHGS (esp for those with New England
ancestors), can't think off the top of my head of the humongous library in
Wayne, or the one in San Francisco. But I would say first search locally
for places, then county-wide, state-wide or particular family groups like
the Chapman Family Association.
And I suppose I shouldn't be shocked that some asked what it is - but I
certainly was startled - VBG. We must have lots of new Chapmans on the
list. Go to the CFA Website <http://www.Chapmanfamilies.org> and you'll
find out all about us. We publish a great quarterly. Membership is $26 per
year, if I remember correctly (just grabbed the Fall 2003 Quarterly to check).
So, Keith, thanks for reminding us all! Evidently lots of us have a bit
more planning to do yet!

Hmmmm I don't think so because as far as I know, my family came from Alabama
to Mississippi and then on to Tennessee. I THINK the father of my gg
grandfather William Washington Chapman was named Benjamin Chapman...but I am just not
sure! We have a lot of I AM JUST NOT SURE in my family tree!

Leaving it to a university library is an excellent idea but make sure the
library has a genealogy section. Otherwise, I would contact the LDS genealogy
department and see what they have to say. I am sure they would have the best
idea of where to leave the material. It is defintely too valuable to leave in
the hands of uninterested relatives. I also glad you mentioned the Pogue
Library at Murray State in KY. I live about an hour away from there and keep
meaning to check it out. Thanks for reminding me to do so!

How and where do you tie into the Chapman line? My line goes back to Beaver Co., PA. The trail goes across Ohio and Indiana where I grew up. Hope we are connected.

While researching my family line (RICE) I had a lady who worked with the Union County Ohio Genealogical Society who went way, way above the normal research to help me with a 20 year old brick wall. We worked for weeks on it. After we got it all dug out. I put it all in a spiral binder notebook and put a front page in the book acknowledging all her efforts in making the book possible. Then I donated the book to the Genealogy Dept of the Union County, Ohio Library.I thought it was the least I could do. All of my family roots are in this part of the state after coming here from Ireland. Perhaps this will be an idea for some of you......

I am divorced with no kids and no one in my family gives a hoot about all my
research either. I'm still in my 40's but I'd give it to a historical society
or some other organization. You never know somewhere down the line some one
maybe interested in learning about their family. Don't waste it by throwing it
out!!
Jill
One thing to consider is a university library. Many have special sections
for genealogical records relevant to their region, and, as archival
custodians, they will be more likely to look after them, and to make them available to
researchers than any private individual could possibly do. Also, they are
set up as continuing organisations, with ongoing funding.
I found assistance in my search for my gggrandfather, Samuel Singleton
Chapman, from one of the Libraries at Murray State University, in KY, for example.
Unfortunately, there was no trace of him in their collection, but they had
wonderful records of his sister, Pernecia Chapman Paschal, among the
information they held on the Paschal family.
Rupert Chapman
For goodness sakes don't throw it out or destroy it. Call the LDS, see if
they can preserve it for you. And make copies on CDs and mail it to your
closest relatives......you aren't the only one descended from your
lineage...surely there is or WILL be someone who will want to know what you
know. Don't waste it!
For years I've been sharing my data with cousins (of ALL degrees), children,
nieces and nephews by email and cd. I also share what I have with others
research near kinship and online in many, many places. The point is to
SHARE as we all need help and our ancestors need to be remembered.
I hope you will find a good way to preserve your data for the future. Just
think how wonderful it would have been for you to find only a part of what
you have.
