Hello -
Might Ezekiel & Zenas thought to name a son - Hezekiah? I am
looking for the parents of Hezekiah S. Chapman b. abt. 1828 and d. 17
Nov. 1893 in Akron, OH. Family legend has his birth in CT and a period
of time living in NY before arriving in northern OH.
Hezekiah m. Martha Peckham who is believed to have come from CT.
Any leads or suggestions for research would be appreciated.
