Mike,
You mentioned an Edgar O. Chapman in your post. Do you have any other Edgar Chapmans, pre 1850, in this line ?
Thank you,

Subject : RE: [CHAPMAN] Does anyone have information about Fredric Henric afChapman and his descendants]
Dear List, does anyone have information about Fredric Henric af Chapman
and his descendants. He was commissioned by King Gustavus Adolphus of
Sweden. My daughter-in-law's GGgrandfather was Gustavus Adolphus Chapman:
Descendants of Gustavus Adolphus Chapman, Sr.
1 Gustavus Adolphus Chapman, Sr. b: Abt. 1850 in
Rappahannock Co., Virginia d: 1916 in after being paralyzed for 13
years
.. +Minnie Brinegar m: 1886 in probably

Daviess County, MO

Fredric Henric af Chapman (September 9, 1721 in Gothenburg - August 19,
1808)was a Swedish naval architect, promoted to vice admiral in 1791,
manager of the shipyard at Karlskrona between 1782-1793.
His father was an English naval officer, Thomas Chapman (born 1679 in
Yorkshire), who moved to Sweden in 1715 and joined the Royal Swedish
Navy and his mother was the daughter of a shipwright. Chapman was
ennobled in 1772.
At the age of 15 Chapman moved to Stockholm to learn the art of
shipbuilding, during a visit to England in 1741 he was arrested when
visiting a shipyard. Upon release, he was offered English service, which
he declined. In 1750, he studied mathematics under Thomas Simpson,
applying Simpson's rules for integrating curves in ship design to
calculate areas, volumes and moments. In 1744 he and another person
established a shipyard in Gothenburg. Between 1752-56 he studied abroad.
In 1757 he was commissioned as a junior shipwright by the Royal Swedish
Navy and tasked with designing a couple of shallow draft vessels for the
Finnish archipelago or coastal fleet. 1764 he was promoted to
senior shipwright.
Chapman was the author of Architectura Navalis Mercatoria (1768) and
several other shipbuilding-related works. His Tract om Skepps Buggeriet
("Treatise on Shipbuilding") published in 1775 is a pioneering work in
modern naval
architecture.
