Hi Marilyn,
You probably already noticed there is a Randall CHAPMAN directly below
Zenas CHAPMAN
on the 1840 Otsego, NY Census.
Yesterday, I saw a Zenas CHAPMAN land record in Eastern NY, somewhere on
the web,
but today I am sorry I cannot find it. It wasn't much, just his name and
the land acquired.
I noticed it, as I have a Great Uncle Zenas CHAPMAN, who was born 1838
in No Stockholm, NY
and migrated about 1867 to MN.
There is an Ezekiel CHAPMAN, age 64, b CT, living with a CHAFFEY family
on the 1850
Palermo, Oswego, NY Census.

(Chapman) Aylsworth 30-40 years
I am searching for Sarah CHAPMAN b. 25 Jun 1804. She first appears
in Smithfield, Madison Co. 1830 married to John AYLESWORTH. Census
reports 1 male under 5. To my knowledge, Sophronia, born 1831 was
their first child so Sarah may have been married before. Subsequent
censuses do not have a male that would be the one reported in the
1830 census. When Sarah married John, she was 26 years old and he
23. Seems 26 is kind of old for a first marriage. Sarah Chapman
Elsworth died in Wisconsin 1897; her husband in 1849, Brookfield,
Waukesha Co., WI. Her occupation is listed as weaver on the 1850
census. Both families seemed to have left Smithfield 1840/41
The similarities between these families leads me to believe that
perhaps, they were cousins/2nd cousins. Does anyone know anything
about Sarah CHAPMAN? Various censuses have her born CT or VT. Her
children, in addition have said Iowa, Maine. Sarah states her
father was born in RI & her mother in CT; she gives her birthplace as CT.
Any hints, information etc. would be greatly appreciated!
