We are seriously hoping that more than a brick is fixing to tumble. LOL
If we can find the missing key to this whole mess we are going to have one
heck of a big wall falling right on top of us. There are a whole bunch of
Chapmans that live here where I do that I think fits into this same family.
They've been just as stuck as I've been. If this all pans out we may have
to have a huge Chapman party out here in the west!
By the way, my great-grandmother - the one that had the newspaper article -
was a Chapman. I have two Chapman lines that married each other. As if one
wasn't enough of a headache. <BG>
